It sounds obvious, but I really think it depends on the questions in the application form. When the questions are competency based, I generally have a set answer for these, so it's a case of modifying it slightly to more accurately reach the question or word count. This can take 20 minutes or so per question.Out of curiosity, how long are people taking to write each application (+ research)? and for those completing them in one day, how are you doing it? Just curious as I have so many due applications within the next few weeks so any help or tips would be great!
Hi there! If you're applying to an international law firm, it probably won't matter to them that you need a visa. The only thing that might hold you back is the work restriction on your visa, which if I recall correctly is 20 hours per week during term time. Just make sure that any vacation schemes you do fall outside of term time so you're not bound by the restriction. Best of luck, and hope this helped!Hello! Does anyone know whether (realistically) needing a visa will put me at a disadvantage for vacation schemes and training contracts? (I studied at a UK university but am from the EU and don't fit into the pre-settlement scheme). @Jessica Booker
Thank you!

I’d go to AllHires and ask them to manually change the form for you and to fix the issue.What would you guys do when allhires has deleted an entire work experience that you included in a submitted application? I checked three times before sending my application, but from now on, I will take screenshots before sending my applications out! @Jessica Booker any suggestions? I am not even angry because I cannot change things, but I think that the system needs to be fixed!
The disadvantage is indirect - firms are likely to have a cap on the number of TCs they can offer to those needing a work permit, and so if a firm has 50 TCs but can only offer a maximum of 10 of those 50 to people who need a work permit, there are effectively fewer training contracts you are competing for.Hello!
