Message: <blockquote data-quote="TheArch" data-source="post: 86380" data-attributes="member: 5319">Hi all!I am again posting after several months of hibernation (exams, yay!). Hope you're all well! I have a slightly long story but will try and keep it nice and short for convenience <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />I have a 2.1 Degree from City, University of London and have no resits in the degree. However, I have had to resit several exams on my LPC (to my utter heartbreak *sobs*). I have secured a paralegal role back in January this year but have recently left the role. I am now being offered another role as an operations executive, but I am unsure whether I should take it (I have until the 17th to decide). Will law firms frown upon my transition from paralegal to non-legal role, as well as me resitting a few modules? I will intend on doing virtual work experiences in the meantime, no matter the role(s) <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" /> Shall I stick to law-related roles only, or will law firms be okay with other roles after leaving a law-related one?I also possess pretty mediocre A- Level grades (ACCC) and redid my AS Levels too (I guess I am not very academic...). Pretty sure that most law firms are out of my reach, but I did attend several open days and have passed the application stage for Kennedys and BCLP )) Sorry if this post is a bit silly - I'm just feeling a little lost...Any advice at all would be much appreciated - thank you so much! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
