TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

[Chak]

Has anyone who applied to clyde summer got an AC yet? Or just spring

someone mentioned here that they already got one. I think they will be doing it in batches as they have crazy amount of applications to go through

Are we supposed to hear from Kirkland this week?

Hey!

I can't imagine that this would be a major issue, but I would flag it to the graduate recruitment team just in case. Small errors like this are very common, so I'd just email them and briefly explain that you've noticed the mistake in the dates, clarify the correct ones, and apologise for the confusion

perfect thank you abbie!!

Any forsters acs sent out for the end of Feb slots yet??

I got an AC invite last year around early Feb so don’t worry just yet

Have NRF and Goodwin finished handing out AC’s?

 

[ladyhaleinthehouse]

Just checking that for the Ropes & Gray application there is no work experience section?

 

[FutureLawyer_]

Has anyone done the eversheds ac that could help? 🙏

 

[Dannie]

guys how do you get everything into 60 sec for a video interview that ssuch a short time. also any V&E VI insights?

 

[trainee4u]

Wldnt call it a PFO
Think they just filled all spots without even looking at the second batch

I haven't received a PFO yet.
I'm sure I will, but it does suggest your analysis is wide of the mark.

think they said its just academics + 1 question to make it simpler

 

[tc2026]

does anyone have advice for latham case study please - is it m&a? and do u know how long we would have

 

[tc2026]

does anyone know if dla ldn have been giving out ac's lately?

 

[8law]

loads of my friends recruited for finance - they normally progress to vi stage very quickly if u pass hr screening, but it seems that they just leave you in limbo forever if you don't. if you submitted a while ago i'd regard it as a lost cause tbh (but never say never)

ooh ok yh i submitted back in november 😭 i was wondering bc they still have applications open
