    Completely disagree, whoever has told you that is just being a negative nancy. I know a few folk (like the member on here), who have worked in paralegal roles, to go on to secure TC's, if anything its going to make you more employable. Congratulations!

    I always try and find something that I can talk about that's within the month. I dont know whether this is a reflection of me as a cynical person, but I feel that if its not as recent as possible, it may seem to the interviewer like I just use the same article for every interview and dont stay...

    PGDL or SQE prep

    @Ameer787 I was in a similar situation to you, I chose to study for the PGDL with SQE prep with BPP, which has been really quite useful, I am nearing the end of the PGDL now and the SQE prep seems as though it will really help with the SQE exams. If you have any questions - drop me a message!

    I can only provide clarity with regards to NRF and Weil. - NRF, applied mid July, received WG invite - Weil, applied in days before deadline - heard nothing back In light of the fact Weil are obviously sifting through apps, I am of the opinion atm, that no news is good news.

    Ok, thanks Jessica! When it says achievements or activities, this to me suggests to exclude employment situations, am I right in thinking this. So far im thinking along the lines of: - Debating Society/Treasurer role at uni - Captain of Rugby Team at School - A short course that I did on...
