TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

[svb risk management intern]

Maybe try being more collaborative, less "I'm going to solve the problem myself"? Might not be the issue, but I think it worked for me.

This will be my next thing to keep in mind! Thanks

I am trying to see something here, considering that Weil has changed their process this year. From applications - VI - AC to work experience and grades to SJT VI and the AC.

They will probably have thousands of VIs to shift through.. any realistic chances for a second wave of ACs? Or should I just close my laptop and go to bed
