Message: <blockquote data-quote="TCLA Community Assistant" data-source="post: 58053" data-attributes="member: 2672">You need to show you are making a commitment to something outside of your studies. Firms generally like candidates who keep themselves busy because a degree isn’t like working and to be quite frank doesn’t develop most of the skills needed to be a good lawyer. Balancing multiple commitments mimics some of the pressures of working in a law firm too.But it doesn’t have to be a society committee role. There will be other commitments out there that will have as much “impressiveness” to them and in many cases more so. That might be a part time job, that maybe running a side hussle business, it might be sport, it might be volunteering.Add in a committee position title alone means very little, in the same way a job title often means very little too. It’s going to be much more about what you achieved in that role, the impact you had in it and the skills/knowledge you gained from it. There are plenty of people who take on committee roles and don’t really show much for it, while others transform their responsibilities/outcomes while in the role.</blockquote>
