[QUOTE="Dogecoin GC, post: 244865, member: 42912"] I've seen people get Slaughter and May's TC with none. I'd say a general rule of thumb is that the higher paying firms would want more experience. Honestly though, I've got no clue - how does someone get a Training Contract at Fried Frank or King & Spalding or Paul Hastings when they have no Vac Scheme? I think some US firms (Simpson Thacher especially) have had a strong preference for paralegals. However. I've done three VSs and can't really afford to do them now so I'm just going to go for it.
