Eventually, I got the test, and after taking it, I emailed again, even though I was hesitant. I did it because I saw a lot of people here getting their WG scores. And...

    Yes, you can! But I would rather have a word document open with some bullet points rather than a piece of paper, as it may be less evident if you’re looking at it for guidance

    Has anyone had experience with Flex for paralegal positions? I'm hesitant to go through another agency interview process only to end up without any job offers. I previously interviewed with Accutrainee to be a paralegal, but they haven't had any job opportunities for me in months.
