TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

[laubedusixjuin]

Skadden will be mid-late January. Akin have sent some responses and will do further into January

Just to clarify, they’ve sent responses to people who have already done the TI? Or beforehand

Draaaama

On a more serious note, has anyone attended a BCLP open day? Was it fun? Was the food to die for?

The mini quiches at their Race For Change event truly changed my life.

Anyone knows when we might start to hear back from Latham? Has anyone received a VI invite?

 

[LawStudent0101]

Anyone heard for Linklaters Spring VS. I saw some people discussing it a few weeks back but they said they were fast tracked or something due to attending an open day.

Yes, the former is correct!

Not yet! I think they should get back around Jan end?

Anyone who is attending a CMS AC, did you get all the date options as it is only allowing me to choose one date? Is this because the others are full?

When I booked earlier it only had the 11th or 17th available so the latter one must have booked up I think

 

[Arf1309]

I’ve seen a lot of CMS AC invites going around - is it just people that have applied to London that have heard back or regional offices too?

Got invited to Stephenson Harwood case study yesterday! Any tips/insight would be much appreciated Please PM!

Has anyone heard from Akin Gump after doing the watson glaser? Applied for a summer VS .

I just got invited to and completed the Watson Glaser for Akin Gump today, I would also like to know when to expect to hear from them about the results.

Could I ask when you applied?

 

[anisha1811]

If it helps, I’m doing an AC that day as well so we’re in it together

I managed to get the 17th in the end so I guess the system just offers one date and when that fills up they give you the other.
Good luck with you AC though!

 

[Hmm123]

is the Simmons test automatic?

Did you receive the tests? I applied awhile ago but have not received any tests

 

[daisy_yawn]

Look how rattled I've got you for stating facts lmao.

With this weak mentality getting rattled by pixels on a screen for stating facts you don't want hear, idk how you'll hack working in a law firm.

Seriously, what is wrong with you? Your rudeness and insensitivity won't work in a law firm either- it's a relationship-driven career and you're failing immensely to show your capability to.

 

[cherry777]

In November if I am remembering correctly.

I completed my CMS WG over a month ago and havent had a rejection or VI.
Anyone in the same boat?

I completed the WG only a week or so ago but have not received any update since then. Presuming a PFO considering the AC dates are next week. On to the next!

I remember in the last 2 years they had ACs up until Feb. But I feel like they may have changed it this time :/

 

[lawstudent9]

has anyone heard back from slaughter and may summer vac scheme and applied in dec?
also anyone heard back from linklaters summer vac scheme and was not fast tracked?

I completed WG a week ago too - expecting a PFO also but would be surprised because normally perform well on WG so idk wouldnt be so sure

Does anyone know if you can request your WG score from DLA

I don’t think they will - they used to have this question in their FAQs but you can check if it has changed.
