So yea, as the title says, luckily I have a paralegal job at a magic circle law firm but have been rejected for their training contracts, I want to work in commercial. I'm not sure what else to do with the SQE coming, and 3 years with no TC I feel pretty down, kinda worried my LPC will no longer be valued. I'm thinking about doing some leadership courses to make my CV stronger maybe that will help. I just don't know where to go anymore. Any ideas or positive advice would be helpful. I don't even know what I'm doing haha what a strange journey this is.
