Finding your Feet and Gaining Confidence in the Legal World

This week we respond to our first ever email dilemma all about starting your first legal role, and our tips on how to achieve confidence within this. Junior legal roles can help confirm if a career in law is for you or not, and the skills and insights you obtain in them are invaluable to that career. We discuss the pressures of securing a TC during your undergraduate degree, and how there's no right or wrong time to gain that TC. Everyone is on their own path, and if you don't have one yet, that's okay, we share the positive side of this and how to utilise legal and non-legal experiences after graduating, to get you where you want to be. Finally, we touch on grades and their importance...are they the be all and end all?! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
