[QUOTE="Alice G, post: 11542, member: 1160"] I agree with [USER=376]@Syafiqkay92[/USER] entirely, age will never count against you and, if anything, it means that you have more lived experience to discuss and even more of a strong narrative for why you have decided corporate law is for you by leveraging those experiences. In terms of genuine advice re. Kirkland - I know they only look at direct TCs once they have had their vac schemes and they do tend to fill the spaces from those schemes given their small intake. Making an application now will not count against you if you apply for a VS in the next recruitment cycle but it is up to you whether you have the time to write one or not :) I think that many firms are recruiting through vac schemes these days so why not give a direct TC app a go, because you never know - maybe their vac scheme candidates weren't a good fit and they will have spaces? And you can always make another application in the next cycle with that further experience you will be gaining from September which you can talk about? :) I turn 24 this November and only decided what I really wanted to do in October of last year so i really do appreciate where you are coming from but just remember that this really is a process and that you will find the right firm and the right fit for you someday and it will all be worth the wait! Always here if you would like to message for further advice or a chat etc :) [/QUOTE]
