TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2021-22 (#1)

I’m trying to understand the reasons why some firms with an otherwise large global presence don’t have any offices in the United States; is this a conscious decision, are there any barriers to entry, etc. - any insights would be much appreciated :)
 
Whilst looking for an update from Pinsent I realised I have in fact applied for 2024 training contract and not the vacation scheme - how is my question? What brain fart was in control that day/week? 🥴😐

Yes, for Manchester! I think they could be inviting in batches, so hopefully should hear soon. I did the SJT on the 22nd Jan and received my report on the 24th. This is for TC 2023.
Yes I think you are right and I did do the test rally late and am waiting for London so will wait a few days I guess.
 
Ashurst PFO post-AC. Tbh this was a little surprising because I thought my AC went fine. But wow, application cycles are really gruelling!! It's a constant rollercoaster of emotions lol. And a struggle to pick yourself up from rejections and continue working on yet another app.

Anyway, I still have some firms I'm hoping for responses from, continuing to manifest🤞
