[QUOTE="pfoapplicant, post: 228185, member: 8993"] Hi everyone, This summer, I graduated from university; I did well academically, but I didn't have a training contract lined up, so I decided that I'd look for paralegal roles (or anything adjacent to this; basically, anything that would be useful legal work experience) post-graduation, whilst applying to vac schemes. I've only just got round to starting to look for paralegal work (yes - I don't blame anyone reading this for thinking I've left it very late), and I was wondering how people went about finding it! In particular, I'd be really interested to hear about whether there are any paralegal recruitment agencies that people would recommend for roles in London and/or the South East. (especially London if possible!) Also, I remember when talking to Jessica Booker (who used to be on this forum) that she talked about how it could be useful to send speculative emails to people (with CVs attached) to "lateral hire recruiters". With this in mind, would it be a logical step to email people specialising in lateral recruitment at firms, to ask them if they've got any paralegal roles? If anyone has any ideas, I'd be hugely grateful! :) Apologies if my questions are a bit stupid; I feel a bit directionless post-university, and I don't really know what questions are best to ask for someone in my situation.
