[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 240174, member: 42112"] I wouldn't assume you're cooked just because they hire predominantly from VS! Whilst vacation schemes do tend to be the main route for firms offering TCs, plenty of candidates secure a TC through the direct route when the odds are statistically low! I secured my TC at Reed Smith last cycle in their first cycle of taking DTC applicants, and I'm by no means the perfect candidate on paper :) Ultimately, you miss every opportunity you don't take - it's always worth applying to the firm if you are genuinely motivated to work there, despite the odds!
