TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

[Pennine Valley]

Sorry. Hope other firm applications work out for you. Could I ask if this was for London spring?

It's a numbers game. There's no logic to any of this. Important not to overthink it.

Agree completely.

Has anyone heard back from Dechert post tests? I completed them 3 weeks ago now

I just completed the Reed Smith assessment and got the feedback report which was better than I anticipated (I was really nervous) BUT for the first two questions in the VI my laptop was glitching. I realized it was because my laptop was full so I unplugged my laptop but I am worried that when they watch the first two back, it won't be clear enough. Shall i email recruitment or leave it and just pray for the best? @Jessica Booker @axelbeugre

I don’t think you need to do this. I think you are assuming there is an issue when there is unlikely to be one.

Thank you! I still haven't received my feedback report from Akin but they confirmed that they had my test score. I sent another email today but I haven't heard back yet.

Hi, how did you best prep for the VI and written exercise?

I still haven't heard back from BCLP VS even though I applied on 19th Oct and sat my test a week or so later.... seems like most people have heard back who applied later, at what point is it worth emailing GR ?

I think they sent out vi invites to the people that applied on the deadline this week. Im assuming thats the final batch and we would hear back after they are done with their assessments

Is this for spring?

Yes

 

[lawtrainee]

Should we consider PFO if haven't received an TI for Akin?

 

[Sunshinepink]

Did anyone receive a report after taking the HL assessment?
