    Paralegal Academy

    So I just finished the assessment centre and bombed the written response! Actually so mad at myself! Because I decided to write down my answer then put it in the text box. And what I have written down was decent (I think). But my slow-ass typing let me down! Ran out of time and couldn't finish...

    Starting PGDL in September 2023?

    Advice

    Wow! I feel like I'm ancient now. I'm a career changer and about to start the MA Law this September. I'm 31! I definitely don't allow myself to think about my age in a negative way. You have a great background and TC's are highly competitive. Never give up on what you believe is yours.

    Non-law Conversion and SQE1 within one year?

    I've had a look at ULaw's PgDL and the next intake after you graduate would be September 2023 and would end in May 2024. The next SQE 1 intake after this would start on September 2024 and finish in January 2025. I may be wrong so it's worth checking but I don't think you'd be able to complete it...

    Shoosmiths Manchester PFO. E-mail wasn't sent by either of the main graduate recruitment team members, can I assume this means I was bottom of the list and shouldn't get my hopes up for the TC?

    Hi all! Is anyone starting their PGDL this September? Thought I'd start a little thread for support. I haven't confirmed my place yet as I'm still figuring out whether to accept the on campus place or online.

    Shouldn't this have been picked up by recruitment? I'm in the same boat - I've applied for 2024 a year too early and received a VI.
