[QUOTE="Trophy, post: 226256, member: 42797"] Take the tc and apply next cycle for direct Tc’s or until you secure a Vs. Then ou make your decision. It’s all luck. This is my situation now I did a vs at a firm I thought I’d love but in fact it did. Not live up to what I thought and I know I’d be suited elsewhere. You only know a firm once you go there. I went there and I knew. I’m not applying again. Some people make little comments on the forum saying it could never be them but they’re the one without a tc so how could they remotely understand lol. Go with what’s right for you if you get an offer and third not 100% apply and keep going. It’s not your fault you were good enough to get an offer and didn’t take it. It would be different if you secured an offer enjoyed the fork and knew you’d take the tc but kept applying that is not fair. Why take an opportunity from someone else when you know you’d won’t take it. Just to add you can have an offer and do vac schemes and make DTC applications. Having an offer doesn’t stop you but accepting one can bar you from applying to some vacation schemes but I think you can apply to DTC not sure. [/QUOTE]
