Hey @Asil Ahmad . Hope you are doing well. Linklaters have just updated their list of future opportunities. https://careers.linklaters.com/en/early-careers/your-application

the FAQs suggest that 'the application and assessment process is the same' for TC and VS routes. Does that mean that the TC route is the same as that for being offered a place on the VS?

The only difference that I know of is that when you apply for a TC, you have to submit 3 pieces of work experience with your application, but if you apply for other opportunities, you only have to submit your work experiences once you reach the assessment centre stage.

And ofcourse, you'd have that final TC interview if you sit for the VS.

Hey everyone, is the A&O winter vac deadline rolling?

All of their schemes are on a rolling basis

Clifford Chance opened their TC apps on the 9th

Is there any confirmation about Linklaters winter vacation scheme open date as I did not see Linklaters on the list in this forum.

check the website they have updated it!

Does anyone know when Mischon's vac schemes run? Like the dates, and if it will be a proper vac scheme unlike the 2 day virtual thing they had this time?

Thanks all, I've updated based on the posts in this thread so far. We'll do another sweep at the end of this week for updated websites.

Sorry to ask this but you need to add a link to the firm websites. I can do it for you if you want.

No worries and hope you are well.

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but are the application questions for the A&O VS the same for the TC?

I cannot check as only the winter vac scheme app has opened so far.

@Jessica Booker perhaps you can help here.

Thank you.

Would it be helpful to update the list with whether each firm's vacation scheme application is judged on a rolling basis?

is there any current opportunities for second years

Has anyone else tried to access application for a number of firms (BCLP/ Shearman) and the application page says all the deadlines have passed? I don't understand if I am looking at the wrong page
