It’s not necessary to update the firms in question. However, if you can log back into the application and update it, you could do that.Hey everyone, hope you are all well!
I had a quick question about applications. I have a couple of TC apps under review at the moment. I completed the work experience section a couple of months ago, however since then I have started work as a paralegal and hence I did not include this in the work experience section on these applications.
Should I inform graduate recruitment of my employment or would this be unnecessary?
Thanks
Thank you so much!
This most likely falls under non-legal work.I am a career changer coming from a tax/accounting background at a Big4 firm. Would my tax experience fall within law-related work experience on an application form or would it be more appropriate to include it as non law related?
I'm hoping they reopen as well. The website says they will open in June and close end of July fo 2024/25 start dates. Would they only be looking for those you have sat the SQE done to start in 2024 as the July deadline wouldn't give much time to start a prep course in Autumn.I thought that Weil reopen their direct TC route as and when it’s needed, last year it reopened in June
I always put my accounting experience down as non-law related.I am a career changer coming from a tax/accounting background at a Big4 firm. Would my tax experience fall within law-related work experience on an application form or would it be more appropriate to include it as non law related?
You can ask - it won’t be annoying, it’s a very common question they will get. They just might not be in a position to move you, and might only be able to offer a waiting list position to move you if the opportunity comes up later down the line.Hi guys, I have a TC offer from Freshfields for the 2026 Feb intake. Ideally I’d have liked an offer for the 2025 September intake - I have to move city for the PGDL and CCP and my friends are getting a flat in September, and I wanted to move in with them. Does anyone know how flexible they are with intake dates? Would I be able to ask to switch around, or will that annoy them? Don’t want to make a bad impression before I even accept the offer. I also have in interview with slaughters which I was planning on cancelling after the freshfields offer, but if they aren’t flexible with intake dates I might go for the slaughters tc anyway. Does anyone have any advice/experience? Thanks!
Most likely it would only be four weeks or until mid-September unfortunately.Hi! I’m a 2nd year law student and I was unsuccessful in my vacation Scheme applications this year but I made it to the final stage for W&C.
I want to ensure that I’m successful this winter for their vacation Scheme so I’m going to spend the next few months applying for direct TC’s so I can get really comfortable with interviews and written assessments.
However, even though I don’t think it would happen, if I somehow got offered a direct TC, how long do you have before you have to give them a response because I’d want ideally 3 months so I can hear back from W&C @Jessica Booker
