I'm going through a screening right now and they seemed to be alright with digital payslips I received by email as proof I worked there when they didn't get an answer from somebody.@Jessica Booker following on from a previous post regarding a firm asking for employment details- what do you do if you completed informal work experience/ the place you worked for has now closed down? I have volunteering experience abroad/ informal legal work experience where I don't have a reference or a follow on number for a reference and I worked as a marketing representative at a restaurant that is now closed and I am worried that this will jeopardise my chances or make it look like I am lying when in reality it is just that I don't have personal contact details for these work experiences? What would be the protocol in a situation like this/ would this completely ruin my chances?
I didn't actually get paid for any of these experiences as they were voluntary and they were arranged through the phone or an email (my Leicester University email), which is now closed down as I have left university. I am semi panicking on how I will provide proof of this work experience now. Also, I booked some of my work experience through an agency called Syft were you can book shifts at different restaurants etc but when I log onto the app now my details have been erased (I think as it has been over a year) would payslips for this be enough?I'm going through a screening right now and they seemed to be alright with digital payslips I received by email as proof I worked there when they didn't get an answer from somebody.
You’re so right I’ve been tryna work through burnout for months I feel like my body has finally given in and said time for a break😂 thank you, I think a week off exclusively binging Netflix is very much neededTake a break! Try to take a guilt free weekend off. If you’re anything like me you might struggle with the guilt free part but it’s important to reset when you can! It’s better to take a day or two off instead of only putting half your effort into work/applications etc because you’re on the cusp of burnout
Was that for direct TC?
When did you complete the WG?Has anyone heard from Freshfields post Watson Glaser? I heard they've started giving out ACs!
Well done! Is the test the second stage?
Guessing I'll have a PFO quite soon as I haven't even been sent a test. Quite annoying as they had so many questions on the application and I spent quite a long time on it.
Congratulations! Did they send you the AC invite this evening?
As others have suggested, take a little while off.Anyone else have law-student fatigue? Between exams, jobs, extra curriculars, applications and PFOs I’m genuinely... drained?? Any tips on how to snap out of it?
Thank you so much!! Yeah reducing screen time (and alcohol) helps a lot, just wish I could like *see* people I guess😂 thanks I’m sure it’ll pass soonAs others have suggested, take a little while off.
When I feel this coming on, I generally try and take an afternoon (or just an evening if I'm totally slammed) away from everything. Turn my monitors off, stick my phone on Don't Disturb, take my fiancée out to lunch or go shopping with her (hah, remember when that was a thing?!) or just take a walk, in the evening just chill out and watch Netflix/ play the PS4/ get a JustEat etc... basically, anything other than work stuff. A bottle of decent red may or may not be involved...
I also try and get at least 7/8 hours (I normally sleep 3.5-4.5 hours a night)and then I'm usually good to go for another good while.
Seriously though, take a while to chill. Hope you're feeling better soon
Both could be considered equally valid, as long as you've got sufficient material for eitherWhen discussing a commercial news story that I'm interested in, would it be better to talk about a transaction that has already been done or something that's progressing in the news?
This lockdown has been particularly brutal, if I didn't live with my fiancée I think I would just about have gone daft being locked up in the house all the time!Thank you so much!!

You will probably be asked to provide other evidence. Either getting a reference from someone you worked with, payslips, employment contract confirmations (eg documents/payslips/ payments into your bank). Any emails confirming the work could also work.@Jessica Booker following on from a previous post regarding a firm asking for employment details- what do you do if you completed informal work experience/ the place you worked for has now closed down?
