[QUOTE="Varun S, post: 1687, member: 399"] I have a high 2:1 from a top 10 RG university etc, but I was very unfocused as to what I wanted from my law degree, It was only in the last few months of my degree when few of my friends bagged a TC that I got the urge to think about my future. I spent most of my university time playing cricket which although was extremely fun, is not proving to be beneficial (lol). My two main hindering factors are my appaling interview skills and a lack of work experience in the commercial sector. I have no plans to self-fund a TC. So, I was wondering if there is anybody out there who has bagged a paralegal role at a corporate firm? and secondly, whether paralegal roles are worth it - in the sense that you are able to acquire commercial awareness, the insights of the law industry etc. Do they help you in getting a TC?
