Hey [USER=26215]@Lulu95049[/USER],


I think that although this will be evaluated positively, it is still not enough experience to be successful to a direct TC application, in my opinion anyway. I heard many graduate recruitment personnel recommending direct TC to someone who worked as a paralegal for years or worked in a sector such as business, banking or corporate environment for years.


Occasionally, they do take students but it is very rare and having a vacation scheme experience is extremely helpful to understand the experience of working in a law firm.


I guess that you can definitely leverage your experience, especially if you highlight how that experience can be useful to you in seats such as litigation/disputes!


Having said that, I think that you should apply to different vacation schemes, and on the side, a couple, not more than that, of direct TC, if you do not have substantial work experience as a paralegal.


I hope that helps and good luck!
