[QUOTE="HorsesForCoursesNeighNeighNeigh, post: 75936, member: 8899"] Have you not yet applied for a vacation scheme or training contract then? If that’s what you want, that should be the first thing you apply for, and would have been applying for during your previous two LLMs? If you don’t get one immediately, then the best thing to do to show your commitment is work in a very similar area, like being a paralegal or something that proves a commercial law interest. A PhD or third LLM just takes you further away from “commercial” law. If what you ultimately want is a TC then that should be your focus. The aspect of your profile that needs evidence is the “commercial” not “law” aspect. A PhD is a ridiculously large and expensive project to even consider if you’re not committed to a career in academia or otherwise have some significant reason about why it’s crucial to your career. It sounds like you haven’t applied for one yet either (or even gone through the horribly competitive funding process), they are a lot harder to get than a masters and you will only be accepted if they really believe your commitment. You’ll only get through a PhD if you really really want to, and afterwards it will be zero help for most job applications. [/QUOTE]
