TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

Apparently, depending on the stage reached, the feedback varies.
- if you reached 1st stage OA: its about spelling mistakes etc
- if you reached 2nd stage OA: its about your motivations etc
- if you did the OD: its some bs on Forage and work experience

IMO its automated based on which pile you were - not entirely sure tho just witnessing a trend here.

Did not do the OD but received the Forage/WE feedback.

 

[doodllaw29]

Oh you got an email … you’re doing better than me then

as in the email for the WE, didn't get anything afterwards dw!

 

[T. Rainee]

When did you get this email from them? Was it after the WE or recently ? I should probably reach out to them just in case as I haven’t heard anything since the WE

I’m sure this is from the WE invitation email!! Don’t worry!!

Latham PFO

My feedback:
If you haven’t already, try completing a few of our online Forage courses. You can include these as work experience.
• Both legal and non-legal work experience is relevant so be sure to include any part-time jobs or non-legal internships.

Did anyone get the same lol

 

[Ijustwanttobealawyer]

Has anyone who applied to Latham spring not heard either a PFO or AC? It seems like they’re sending them out randomly

Applied for summer and have not heard anything either. However, it is possible they are not sending them randomly - some firms rank their candidates and gradually invite them in that order.

[user55998384]

can someone tell me what time ish firms stop replying so i can stop refreshing my emails and revise for my exam

 

[FutureTraineeMaybe]

@Afraz Akhtar How would you answer the question "What motivates you?" in strength-based interviews? It seems very broad to me and I don't have a clue what to include in the answer. Any insights would be highly appreciated
