But having read the stories of so many aspiring lawyers has inspired me to write about my journey so far and take accountability for my mistakes.Here’s my journey so far:1) applied to and got rejected from the spring vacation schemes at Sidley Austin & Weil; (application stage)2) awaiting the outcomes of my applications to Kirkland and Shearman for their spring/summer vac schemes As for developing my commercial awareness, I regularly listen to the FT news briefing podcast and also read TCLA’s weekly commercial awareness newsletters. I find these sources really interesting and easy to digest. Whilst I’m able to link commercial topics to wider trends (such as economic, social & political), I’m struggling to link them back to law firms, possibly why I faced application stage rejections.Moving forward, I am in the process of applying to the Ropes & Gray vac scheme determined to not repeat the previous mistakes. After this, I’ll be applying to direct TC applications as I feel I have a considerable amount of legal experience through previous internships and my current job as a paralegal to demonstrate my interest in commercial law. I hope to learn from members on this forum. Thanks 😊</blockquote>
