[QUOTE="Lottie, post: 1549, member: 99"] Hi Jai Thank you so much :) Of course. So I had 10 rejections. I'd got to various stages, online tests, video interviews, but I wasn't invited to any ACs/interviews. Perhaps slightly cocky of me, but I was sure that if I could get an AC/interview, I could impress face-to-face more than on paper. I think that I was able to keep going because I knew I really wanted it. That's what I want my career to be. I've got some really supportive friends that wouldn't allow me to beat myself up over rejections and encouraged me. I think having people like that around are invaluable, though lots of these friends are qualified lawyers which can also be a bit tough (going for drinks, every single person is a lawyer, which is what you really want). After rejections, give yourself a bit of time to be disappointed, regroup and then start again. Also towards the end of this cycle, I could tell my applications were getting better, so I knew I must be getting close and I think that was encouraging. I don't know how helpful that is as a response! Keep going - I'm honestly so sure that if I can do it, you can. [/QUOTE]
