Hello everyone, this is Sepi. I have a Bachelor of Laws and a Master of International Law degree from Iran, as well as a Master of International Business Law from the UK. I am well aware that being Iranian and having no UK law background puts me at a serious disadvantage, but somehow I am trying to hold on to even the tiniest shred of hope!

This is my second year applying (and getting rejected) for training contracts. I hope to find some good advice by people who have been through this process on this platform, cause it seems like nothing else is working for me! Thank you in advance for any future advice or guidance. (apologies for the non-fancy tone, working on cover letters and application questions all day has drained me!)
