[QUOTE="axelbeugre, post: 155178, member: 30937"] Hey [USER=30231]@RV[/USER], I totally agree with what [USER=2672]@Jessica Booker[/USER] said. I had a friend who attended Jones Day vacation scheme and they were very strict with the visa requirement and they do not sponsor visa to attend the Vacation Scheme. I would check with them but most firms do not sponsor international individuals who are not legally allowed to work in the UK. This was something that, as an international student myself, I had to make sure I was on top of. I remember that I could not attend Dentons Spring Vacation Scheme because it was schedule to happen during term time, and so they asked me to be considered for a direct training contract. In case they say that you are not allowed to do the scheme, it might be worth asking them if they are willing to offer you a direct training contract. Some firms would be willing to do it if they really like. I had personal experience with a couple of firms regarding this and they were happy to organise further interviews to offer me the training contract, I just rejected their offers as I had another one. I hope this is helpful and good luck with your applications! [/QUOTE]
