[QUOTE="JB Singh, post: 142181, member: 28970"] Hi Aditya My name is Jaskaran and I am a fellow non-UK law degree holder like yourself. I also completed my LLB in 2020 and came to the UK to study LLM in International Business Law from Manchester Law School, MMU. I have completed my LLM now and looking for legal roles like Paralegal and Litigation Executive to gain legal experience here in the UK. I was really glad to have found this forum and read about your experience so far in the UK. It was quite reassuring to know that someone with a non-UK law degree got a job here. For my legal experience, I have 1.5 years of that working in the District Courts but I don't think that counts much. And like you, I am also volunteering at a Law Centre to help with PIP and UC claims. Since you were able to secure a Paralegal position twice, can you share some tips on the application process you followed and the platform that you used to pinpoint and find these jobs? Also, if you could share some tips for the preparation of the interviews as well, that would be really helpful. I wish you the best in your journey and hope you get a training contract soon so I will have someone I can take inspiration form. :). [/QUOTE]
