Should I self-fund the LPC/SQE or look for another career?
Just a bit about my personal circumstances:
I'm a 2021 Law LLB grad from an ex-poly non-Russell group (first class)
120 UCAS
I've been working but the work isn't skilled and I come from an under-represented background.
I secured 1 Vac scheme for a full service law firm, but my other training contract applications have folded (mostly after online video interviews).
I made several paralegal applications but due to lack of experience I haven't got a job offer yet.
I'm interested in a career in commercial law, but also looked into consulting and recruitment.
I'm concerned about self-funding and spending time studying and potentially not even securing paralegal roles, so I would like to know what I should take into consideration when thinking about self-funding?
Would it be wise to go into further study?
What alternatives are there that are realistic substitutes and less competitive?
Thank you
