did anyone else just apply for nrf and not get an application confirmation lol do law firms just hate sending me confirmations <3
Yeah, it’s the same situation for me. Sent in the application but didn’t get any confirmation that NRF received my application. Best to wait till today evening, hopefully they send the confirmation email as it could be that their systems don’t work/respond on Sunday, just my assumption

    At what point do we start chasing HogLov? I applied in mid-January…
    i feel like as long as others have also not heard back, which we haven’t, it’s best to just wait… there must be something going on internally and im always bit cautious about inadvertently causing a firm to reject me which is just about my own anxieties but i’d just wait and only contact them once others start hearing back

    i got rejected a couple of weeks back so that definitely means they're screening apps. good luck to you as i feel no news is good news

    How does one go about successfully securing their first paralegal position? I am really struggling to find openings for those with no prior experience as a paralegal. I have two degrees and a considerable amount of other work experience that I think will help my application (if I can actually find one I am eligible for!)...
    Try the civil service website for paralegal positions, they tend to hire without experience in the legal industry. From there you can build legal skills and work experience.
