Background

At TCLA, we’re building the home of the world’s best legal talent. This is made up of two parts: technology and community. As a Community Assistant, you will be the backbone of the community. That means acting as the central point of contact for thousands of students.

Roles and Responsibilities

The TCLA forum is completely free. Up to 75,000 students and graduates each year use it to get access to high quality information to understand how to pursue a legal career, while law firms use the forum to attract the most talented applicants.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
