TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24
- Thread starter Jessica Booker
- Start date
Yes, got the call just now! Thank you so much
I did my interview 8th of February
Congrats! I hope you're all on the same VS dates so you can play a game of 'Who's the cartoon frog' and 'Who's the illustrated Tracy Beaker' at the induction 😅
15 - but that's a mix of Vacation Schemes and Direct TCs
FYI: I do try and apply early, and not on the deadline day...so I suspect many people will have these same firms in future (e.g. Baker McKenzie)
PLUS: someone asked about dealing with rejections... I deal with a rejection by writing another application, to ensure I am always awaiting on above 10 applications lol

Does anyone know the best way to go about asking a firm to switch scheme dates? I have accepted a place on a VS already, and took the earlier of the two options regarding dates. I have now been offered another scheme which clashes with those dates, and the only way that I could do both VSs is by asking the firm I have already accepted a VS with to switch me to a later scheme (which they do run).
Does anyone know the best way to go about this? Is an email or call to grad rec more suitable, and should I tell them that my reason for wishing to switch dates is so that I can attend another firm's VS?
Also, are firms usually accommodating in situations like this?
Many thanks in advance.

Slaughter pfo and Squire pfo within the same day. Toughhhhhhhh
Hey, I just got a standard rejection email nearly 5 weeks after my Milbank AC and they’re refusing to provide individual feedback (which I think is ridiculous given the AC was nearly 6 hrs long and we completed 4 exercises). I don’t want to ask for a Subject Access Request straight away - how can i ask for feedback and mention the SAR without seeming too bothersome? Thank you
Anyone heard back from NRF? I know some people have got a VI but other than that any updates? Or has anyone received a rejection? - still waiting to hear from them but not confident considering others have received a VI
Honestly I wouldn't expect much. They've sent me two generic rejection emails post AC. The first one I got after requesting feedback a few weeks ago and the second one I got today randomly 😂Hey, I just got a standard rejection email nearly 5 weeks after my Milbank AC and they’re refusing to provide individual feedback (which I think is ridiculous given the AC was nearly 6 hrs long and we completed 4 exercises).
