[QUOTE="secretadmirer, post: 32075, member: 6650"] Yeah, you're completely 100% correct Jessica - I'm merely taking note just in case, and to give websites a check around those dates :) Actually, in regard to online experiences... obviously, they're not the same as in-person schemes and workshops, however, I was wondering if recruitment will treat them as such on a CV? Context: I'm a nonlaw student entering my final year in September. I decided to pursue law in the commercial/corporate sector seriously after my year abroad which just finished in June, as I took modules that helped me come to that conclusion. That being said, because of my prior self-made arranged marriage to other career paths, I hadn't applied for or done any VSs or gone to open days (also because I'm an international student so it's better financially for me to go home for the holidays) which is why I'm adamant about taking Winter/Spring opportunities now. So, I've participated in webinars and internship experiences, but that's mainly what's available at this point in time, as I don't want to blindly apply to direct TCs before the July 31st before doing a VS, for example. So, if I say I participated in "virtual internship opportunities" - how will recruitment view this? I know it depends on the rest of the application and the context of the other roles the applicant has taken on (for example I've worked in/out of term time, I'm going to do a paralegal role in August albeit for a criminal defence firm, been active and held leadership roles in societies). Apologies for the block of text, just thought it wouldn't hurt to ask. Thank you so much Jessica (and others that may chip in)! [/QUOTE]
