[QUOTE="Dheepa, post: 61694, member: 1572"] Agree with everything Jacob and Naomi have said! You will definitely not be disadvantaged by choosing to take time out from the process to become a better applicant. I wanted to link you to this thread where Alice discussed her legal tech role before her TC so you can see for yourself the various routes people take before securing a TC [URL]https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/legal-tech-paralegal-job.3351/#post-59387[/URL]. Also want to add that you don't have to limit yourself to something legal or finance related. I know people tend to see both as being the most directly applicable to a TC and commercial law but I'd recommend looking into some entry level graduate schemes at FTSE 100 companies (typical law firm clients) and other places as well. They usually have quite a few business analysts and compliance related roles advertised and I think it would be a fantastic way to learn more about how clients of law firms operate and what they really care about. Alternatively lots of law firms also look for business support staff, so maybe that's something you can consider as well. [/QUOTE]
