    Hi @Jessica Booker , what is the policy surrounding people who want to work as paralegals/administrators whilst applying for TCs? E.g. If I started an admin role this September and secure a 2025 TC at the same time, would I need to mention this to my employer especially as I know I'd be leaving...

    @Jessica Booker How do you think using an example from a past vac scheme to answer a competency question would go down with interviewers? E.g. teamwork to deliver a group presentation and managing everyone's different schedules. Or should I just stick to 'normal' experiences?

    What should I do if the charity store I volunteered for closed and none of the original people I worked with continued? Should I try get in contact with the charity's general inbox that handles recruiting UK-wide or is it sufficient to just inform the firm about it?
