[QUOTE="Trophy, post: 222393, member: 42797"] Winter vacation schemes tend to be open for finalist and graduates only across most firms. Most international students cannot apply to WVS due to visa and term date restrictions so you’ve already eliminated some “competition”. I’d say sidley is always the first to open the applications and people tend to rush and apply within the first 3 days writing half hearted answers. Given their scheme dates this year it’s within holiday period (same with dechert) for most universities, many international students would be eligible to apply so the possibly makes it equally competitive as its other dates. I’ve applied to vac scheme for a couple years and found no luck with winter but did with spring and summer not sure why but I found those who succeed (post winter scheme) and post on LinkedIn had a vs the previous cycle they did not convert or had a bit of work experience. But this is all my observation and waffle 😅 [/QUOTE]
