    Hi everyone, I'd just like to say that earlier today I got a call to say I was successful in obtaining a paralegal role at a firm I absolutely love. I know it's not the end goal of a TC, but after many apps this year and no success (although 2 I'm waiting to hear back from) it's finally some...
