TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

When is everyone planning to do the Shoosmiths test? It’s quite nerve wracking that we are the first people to do it because there’s no guidance 😬😬 I hope it goes well for everyone!

I saw that its through Cappfinity which is the platform most firms use for online assessments so i guess it will be quite similar - having to rank what you would do in a situation etc. Some firms also throw in some watson glaser type of questions in the end as well.

All u guys that got a Sidley PFO when did u apply? I still haven’t got anything from them

 

[CorpLawyer00]

[futureTS2025hopeful]

Damn I really tried for Sidley LMAO

 

[prospectiveswitcher]

Sidley PFO too

 

[futureTS2025hopeful]

Did / will anyone still get Sidley interviews or have not yet been rejected? I wonder if they just did a mass PFO

 

[Lucy Ryan]

I think the video interview is timed

Thank you. Do you know about the tests?

 

[SK02]

Hi guys.
Can anyone give any advice for Bakers VI and clarify if there is some time given after the question to think before we answer?

Thanks

Isn't Shearman's Spring vac scheme starting on 7 March? They have to do interviews at least a week before then right....?

Anyone heard from Forsters, CRS or Farrers? Last year's forum tells me we should hear this week but I'm v scared

I have not yet heard back from Farrers - fingers crossed

No worries, and I'm not sure about the tests.

OOFT looks like Sidley just mass rejected everyone.

Did anyone receive an AC invite?
