[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 19645, member: 2672"] Your age is not an issue - plenty of firms have recruited (and will continue to recruit) people in their 40s, or older. Every firm I have worked with has recruited people who came to law later on in life. Its really difficult for me to say what is stopping you getting through to interview stage. Have you got any feedback on the recruitment processes you have encountered? Could it be down to other assessments, like online assessments/video interviews? Also what are your college grades like? If these aren't comparable to a firm's A-level requirements, then this could also be an obstacle. If you require a work permit, this could also be an issue, especially if a RLMT is required (which is pretty impossible for law firms to prove). Feel free to PM me if you want to talk about your Ex Circs in more detail. Sometimes recruiters will see a candidate with Ext Circs, but their grades are not strong in places where the ext circs do not exist. This might not be the case for you, especially if you have got a distinction in the LPC. [/QUOTE]
