TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

[Jessica Booker]

Hi!

With a question like this: 'Real or fictional, who is your greatest inspiration and why?"

It's not a very typical 'Tell me a time...' question... Would any others/TCLA team be able to provide directions on how to structure the response please? Let's say my mother is my greatest inspiration.

Thanks a million!

@Jessica Booker

It isn't really about structure as such, it's more about explaining why they are your inspiration, rather then who they are. That says a lot about you and who you aspire to be like.

Think of it more like answering "why is the person who is your greatest inspiration, your greatest inspiration"

Exactly, they do not reply to emails or pick up any calls so how were we even supposed to know... I tried contacting them before and there was no answer.

I'm fairly certain that they are not recruiting on a rolling basis, as I submitted my application very close to the deadline myself. The interview invite was sent out last week, the interview itself was yesterday and the VS invite came today. They might be sending out interviews in batches like some other firms do, but quite frankly I have no idea as I haven't been able to find much online.

That's the fastest I've ever seen a law firm conduct their application process hahaha
