[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 124682, member: 2672"] 1) I would apply for Spring and Summer vacation schemes now with the abuse you may also need to apply for next year’s winter schemes in August-November next year. Training contracts are typically recruited 2-3 year in advance (most firms are currently recruiting for 2025 intakes) but occasionally earlier intakes are advertised, so you may find an opportunity to start a TC earlier. 2) You won’t be eligible to do the LPC. You will need to take the SQE instead. If you secure a TC, then most firms will sponsor you through this course. However, if you didn’t secure a TC, you could choose to self fund the SQE. There isn’t really a right or wrong approach to this. Plenty of people will wait until they secure a TC, and may do paralegalling work instead. However, some paralegal jobs will also require the LPC or SQE (although many won’t at the same time). [/QUOTE]
