I’ve made it to the next stage for a paralegal position with a civil liberties firm. I’m required to take a timed written test for 1 hour. Does anyone have any experience with written tests, especially for niche law firms? I really dunno how to prep and it’s next Tuesday.- bangarangbass39

How reliable are the reported times? I’m seeing Large international/national firms with decent/very good work life balance but then glass door contradicts that. For example, one firm finishes at 6:30 on average but then on glassdoor many ppl from the London office complain about hours. I...- bangarangbass39

I still have no update from AG. There’s 3 weeks left for them to make a response - they said we should hear back within 10 weeks from the deadline. (I can’t remember where I read this so I might be wrong.) I haven’t got a good feeling anymore- bangarangbass39

I applied for a paralegal position very recently. I did a mixture, of 2-3 bullet points outlining some tasks I completed in the work experience and then a few sentences underneath explaining what I learnt and relevant skills.

I assume with the question below, it would be wrong for me to respond with points about how my values connect with the firm and vice versa.

I imagine that I am committing plagiarism here, but is it okay to copy two sentences from my Open Day application for my Vacation scheme application at the same firm? I honestly cannot think of a better way to express my interest than I already have! (That isn't a flex, I'm just lost for ideas)...- bangarangbass39
