[QUOTE="Las123, post: 37052, member: 380"] I agree with all of the advice above. Just to add to that, I think that in terms of experience and extracurriculars, quality > quantity. So even if you cannot attend as many or even any law fairs or open days, I think it is so impressive that you’ve got a VS on your CV, and your current role sounds demanding- so you clearly have the resilience, time-management skills etc that law firms look for! Leverage the experience you do have, because even if it looks trivial to you, it may not actually be the case. It is all about how you convey what your experience has brought out in you, and your experience is just as valuable as anyone else’s! Do think carefully about which law firms you wish to apply to so you’re able to really dedicate time to those. Perhaps have a schedule where you prioritise those applications and allocate more spare time to them. And good luck with applying, I am sure your hard work will pay off! [/QUOTE]
