TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

[Deek14]

I completed the first stage of Irwin Mitchell’s direct TC which was an online assessment along with video interview. I have received my feedback report which says that my top strengths are pride (commitment to excellence) and time optimiser. The lowest scoring strength was critical reasoning. Does anyone has any insight on what IM prioritises? I have given various SJT tests and have received different feedbacks but I never understand what a firm prioritises or gives more importance to.
Any insight or feedback on this would be appreciated!

Hi everyone! Just did the A&O assessment and not sure what to make of my feedback. Would anyone be willing to share theirs? Feel free to PM!
