[QUOTE="WillkieGemma, post: 182889, member: 17473"] Hi [USER=6526]@Sim96[/USER] Many thanks - I'm afraid you cannot apply for training contracts anywhere, as you are a fully qualified English & Welsh solicitor, therefore you cannot apply via the TC route. You cannot omit to mention it and retain your integrity - it is a key and relevant piece of information. I would suggest working as a paralegal to gain the experience, and then perhaps the firm will promote you to associate. Additionally, if you completed the QLTS, this would suggest you are qualified in another jurisdiction. If this is the case, did you practice there? Have you built up experience in another jurisdiction? Can you apply as an NQ on that basis? I am not responsible for lateral recruitment, so I am not your best source of advice as to how to do this etc, so perhaps this is another route you can explore. Many thanks Gemma [/QUOTE]
