[QUOTE="J.001, post: 97152, member: 19478"] Hi Ahi! Thank you for the detailed advice, I really appreciate it. Evidencing that commitment is definitely the main thing I'm trying to tackle at the moment. I am full-time employed so I would need to give up my job and focus on the course if I were to self-fund. One thing I am struggling to find is specific careers events for graduates. Most of these tend to be aimed at students in specific years of their study. I understand these are usually good opportunities to network, meet recruiters and ask questions of trainees at each firm. Are there any alternatives to this or graduate-specific events? Regarding the LPC's validity, I have recently read that the LPC will be phased out over the 'next few years'. I am concerned that if I did complete the LPC, firms might not be as receptive to this as they have been in previous years given the transition to the new SQE. Have I understood the situation correctly? Thanks again :) J [/QUOTE]
