[QUOTE="astra3127, post: 65558, member: 5736"] You’re absolutely right. I had already realised I had to broaden my focus, thus the apps to places like Ashurst - wasn’t keen but they’d sponsor, I thought. I think enthusiasm does come through though, because it’s telling the two I really did want, Hill Dickinson and TLT, were the only other final round invites - the rest of my random commercial apps failed except Ashurst. And you’re right again, I’ve already decided to apply for consulting and other types of grad schemes next fall if I don’t get TLT on Thursday. America is...lol you know. I do not want to go back for any reason, and my life is here. My partner, my friends, everything. Once I get British citizenship I can do whatever I want, until then beggars can’t be choosers. I have decided to rest as well because I don’t want to burn out, lol it’s like you’re reading my mind. This year was actually supposed to be my “rest” year so I could focus on my LPC and my job and just recover from burnout, but the ACs all got moved back due to corona so I wound up having them anyway, right during mock exam season and right during a crunch period at my paralegal job. I won’t apply again until my LPC is done, will try to recover. I’m applying all the strategies I’m supposed to, I’m just tired, and it sounds like you understand that completely. It’s really frustrating when you do everything you are supposed to and just aren’t seeing results. I’m trying to get myself hyped for this AC and I’m going to do the best I can, I pray it is the last [/QUOTE]
