[QUOTE="Afraz Akhtar, post: 233706, member: 43563"] [USER=42280]@iwatchsuits[/USER] typically, with these sort of applications, they decide if you're a strong enough candidate for the DTC route or if they would like to see what you're like in practice before pushing you forwards with the TC. Equally, for those that maybe don't have strong enough experience, and may otherwise be rejected for a DTC, they may be considered for the VS. Think of it as a safety net. As for the question itself, I would focus on the training contract just like you would any other application.
