Thanks!They’re non-rolling now so I imagine you’ll need to wait until at least 2 weeks post deadline. They run 10-13 assessments days and I think continue quite late into August.

Okie thank you! Just wondering why there hasn't been a PFO yet as it does seem like the ACs will be filled outI got an AC invite last week and when I booked there were about 5 or so AC dates so they will probably invite more soon
Heard back within 3 hours with an invitation for the next interview. Quite unusual, as I’ve never heard back so quickly from a firm before. Hope you hear good news soonHow long after Farrer & Co first interviews for direct TC did people hear back about next steps?
does anybody have an email ID to contact them?Has anybody heard from Penningtons Manches Cooper?
I never went on the new grad route (got onto Spousal last year) but I picked up work immediately after my masters while still on my student visa. However, it was i) a company I had previously worked with and ii) project work which was due to end prior to my student visa expiring.Has any international student been able to secure a paralegal role before applying for the Graduate visa?
They would apply for a skilled persons visa for you (assuming they meet the criteria and are willing to do so). You’d need to speak to the firm in question as to whether they do this for trainees.Hi @Jessica Booker. There is a possibility that I might lose my status under the EU settlement scheme because of working abroad.
However, if I am to start a training contract at a firm, do you think they would be amenable/likely to offer to sponsor another type of visa before starting the training contract? In that case, do you know what type of visa that would be relevant?
When applying to the firm, I mentioned that I have a right to work indefinitely - which I, of course, have at this moment.
I further believe this work experience abroad would be an asset for the firm when starting the TC.
Hi! I've spoken to international students who have managed to get a paralegal role before, but I'm not sure whether it was before or after applying for the graduate visa. Would recommend reaching out to people on Linkedin, as most international students are very friendly and willing to help!Has any international student been able to secure a paralegal role before applying for the Graduate visa?
hey i think i applied while not having visa but by time i had interview i had grad visa (whole process only took around 2 weeks for me - back in July last year)Has any international student been able to secure a paralegal role before applying for the Graduate visa?
will hop in and say that i'm 99% sure you can! there are only a couple work exclusions from youth mobility visa (e.g. entrepreneurship) and i don't believe they include legal services work!Hey @Jessica Booker or others who may know the answer. I’m an Australian citizen thinking of moving to the UK under the youth mobility visa that is between Australia and UK (as I understand this visa allows Australians to work for three years in the UK). Do you know if this visa allows us to work in UK law firms based on your experience (asking as an application asks if we would require sponsorship)? Many thanks
