TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4

[Jessica Booker]

Hi everyone,

With a new recruitment cycle starting in the next few weeks, we thought it best to start a new master thread to discuss direct training contract applications for the 2023-2024 application cycle.

Best of luck to everyone for this upcoming cycle

Thanks,

Jess

i'm so confused, the one on their website says "Training contract 2025 and february 2026" and has the dates for this recruitment cycle 😭
