Vacation Scheme → Training Contract Coaching
You’re so close. Make your vac scheme count.
You’ve already done the hard part: secured the vacation scheme.
Now the goal is simple — turn that opportunity into a training contract.
This 90-minute one-to-one session is designed specifically for students with an upcoming vacation scheme. We’ll help you understand what firms are really assessing, how to perform consistently across the scheme and how to maximise your chances of converting.
What we’ll cover
🎯 What firms are really assessing Understand the behaviours, judgement and commercial instincts firms are looking for across the whole scheme.
📝 Written tasks, calls and group work We’ll talk through how to approach the day-to-day exercises that often feed into conversion decisions.
💬 Building strong relationships Learn how to interact confidently with trainees, associates, supervisors and partners without forcing it.
🧠 Commercial awareness on scheme We’ll help you think about the kinds of commercial issues likely to come up and how to discuss them naturally.
⚠️ Common mistakes and how to recover We’ll cover the behaviours that can quietly damage a scheme — and what to do if something doesn’t go perfectly.
🏁 End-of-scheme interview preparation We’ll work through likely conversion questions and how to position your performance and experience from the scheme.
Tailored to your firm and scheme
If you know the likely format of the scheme, we can tailor the session around it.
That can include:
written exercises
calls or client-style tasks
group work
networking and partner interaction
feedback meetings
end-of-scheme interviews
