[QUOTE="ASyougerrit, post: 86768, member: 16177"] Hi I hold a training contract at Eversheds Sutherland, which I’ve accepted. I also had a TC from Dentons but chose the former. Both firms are good at mid market corporate work which I’m interested in, as well as excelling in other pockets of law like real estate etc. Now just to preface, I know that a TC is great to have and I’m in a very fortunate position. But I’m terms of career advancement, how are the prospects when it comes to 1) lateralling to a MC firm or US firm (or even a silver circle firm like HSF) and 2) general moving to clients in house (reputable big ones.) Is this TC worth less compared to MC firms etc? I had a insight scheme at Linklaters so I feel like it’s a step down. I also know that getting a TC itself is hard, and I should be happy to have received something in this current market. Any insight would be appreciated. And I know how people will say stuff like “I know people who trained at Eversheds and now work at Davis Polk or Freshfields” but my question is, is this anecdotal/rare/bordering impossability? any help would be appreciated. PS: Checked other threads on TC:A and the likes of TSR, the vast majority was concerned with moving from MC firms to US firms- which is slightly relevant but still off from SC/Non SC movement to more lucrative frms.
