TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

hey does everyone who is doing the JD vac scheme get invited to the 'keep warm' event? what is it?

Heyy when did you do their AC?

 

[soph107048]

Hi! I missed a call this morning from a firm who offered me a VS with them. They left a voicemail and asked me to call back. I saw it an hour later and they weren't annoyed or anything. They said they would email a few days after (once they've called everyone I suppose) but the call is just to put you out of the wait, the email will still come either way from my experience.

Thank youu and congrats!! May i ask what firm?

Has anyone heard back from Charles Russell Speechlys for their vac scheme application (London) after completing the video interview?

Fingers crossed for more news next week (last year some offers went out on 13 March)

Will some offers have gone out? As in previous years offer holders were told not to say anything till a week later. Dk if I should assume PFO soon

I would guess some have gone out but can't be sure from which office--looks like last year was one wave of Feb 28th (maybe Guildford since the scheme comes first) and then one wave of 13 March offers

have you seen any offers if so are they non-law? also they might do mass offers and mass PFO. I think most offers are for people who have clashes and need to know

I know of a few, but I agree it seems like its people with offers. I think I'm just confused by my application going from 'under consideration' to 'invited to interview'. That feels like a decision was made and yet nothing, so I'm expecting the worst.

I might email if we still don’t hear tomorrow… because the beginning of March has long since gone imo lmao

No news is good news. I think interview confirmed sounds best. I wouldn't read into it.

 

[Madison Pinewall]

thanks dude, im feeling pretty deflated atp. everybody around me has offers and I got two ACs failed the first and walked into slaughters so pessimistic I think I probably guaranteed a flop before I even started it hahahah

On an unrelated note, SM are at my university careers fair tomorrow haha so if they do PFO at least I can ask about DTC...
