TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2023-4

Status
Not open for further replies.
Hi everyone,

I have secured a TC :)

Currently choosing my seats. Certain I want to do IP Tech and Disputes. Choosing between Corporate Finance, M&A, Financial Services Regulatory and Competition, Trade and Foreign Investment. I want to do Corporate Finance, but was wondering if I choose that, would I be able to become an M&A lawyer in the future if a firm had a wide corporate department that one could laterally move in? Also wondering whether my choices seem well rounded?

Hey, are you already being asked to choose seats having accepted this round or are you just thinking ahead?
