TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

[SAA]

Is anyone here going to apply to Russell-Cooke in this cycle or has already applied? The application deadline for vac schemes and TCs is 17 feb but doesn't specify the time. Does anyone know if the deadline is tonight or tomorrow night?

Hi, it was Nicole who called me and it is virtual.

Congratulations!

I don’t know if you know the answer to this either but is the interview the last stage before the VS.

The website is very unclear and clearly states the direct TC route but not the VS route.

Its usually 23:59 on the date of the deadline, but worth checking with GR.

Just read my Travers application back and it is very good but I just realised I put Yours Sincerely instead of Yours sincerely!

Expecting a PFO now.

Hi I’ve had 2 missed calls this morning from 3 different numbers, does travers smith end in 455 or 637 by any chance?

Don't give up just yet - the majority of firms seem to say they'll overlook a single error if the rest is really good!

Has anyone heard from Milbank yet? Or do we reckon it's going to be after their next AC?

Haven’t heard anything and I’m guessing it will be after the AC

I’m not sure myself to be honest! I’m waiting for my friend who had a VS with them last year for her input

No sorry! But I don’t reckon it’ll only be from one number. I would recommend calling and seeing what’s up

In two applications, I realised I had a repeated word in my cover letter and made it through to the next stage for both firms - so don't rule it out yet!

Have u confirmed this with GR? I'm having issues with submitting by midnight today from my laptop, so if the deadline is tonight, I'll use my friends laptop instead but it'll be a hassle for me. So thats why I've asked.
