It’s a bit like marmite, some people love it some people hate it.
You qualify as a solicitor generally. I’ve heard of associates moving within a practice area (ie from a specialist area to a more generalist area or vice versa) but not personally of moving between practice areas. I imagine in limited cases this may be possible but within specific topic confines.

just adding to the list, Mills & Revve is a no
I have heard of it, but it is rare. I know an associate who moved from finance to litigation, but I have met 1,000s of lawyers in my time and that's the only instance I can think of off the top of my head.
but I feel super exhausted and anxious all the time!!I normally just give background info like my name, age, studies and that's it.
I felt similarly but I really think you just have to listen to your body. I was sick so I was forced not to work the 4 days before my AC which I thought was the end of my chances but I ended up getting it. Rest is really underrated but it really helps clear your mind. If you can, I'd say focus on two core things, keeping up your commercial awareness (podcasts are great if you dont want to read) and knowing your story/experiences so you can answer why law, why the firm (firm research is what I focused on so competitors, a case or two I am interested in and what makes them unique) and why you! The rest is really just luck and thinking on your feet which only becomes harder if you are burnt outHow should I handle feeling burnt out from this cycle? I have an AC coming up and I feel like I’m not doing enough work for it
Best of luck with the AC!https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/gowling-wlg-ac-2022-feedback.5057/#post-107578 - Let's encourage one another
