[QUOTE="j3llyfish, post: 184506, member: 24536"] Hey guys!! Long-time stalker, first-time poster. I graduated in 2022 and after battling the UK job market, got a job at a family law firm last year (business support more so rather than technical legal work). I have recently had another job offer at a firm that has a few specialities but mainly deals with family law. I was excited to be able to gain some form of field related experience, even if it is sort of admin, but wonder if this is going to impact me negatively if I ultimately WANT to do commercial law, but just haven't broken in yet. Would appreciate any advice. I don't want to end up with 2 years of family law related experience. I can talk about my experience smartly and focus on the transferable features to commercial law, but I wonder if this is going to put me in a bad position. Really appreciate any advice - thanks!
