[QUOTE="LLM2022, post: 144522, member: 13513"] Hi [USER=2672]@Jessica Booker[/USER] or anyone able to answer my question. I graduated in July 2022 from my postgraduate course and pursued a gap-year. During my gap-year, I worked in retail for a few months and did some international travel with friends. I was quite burned-out from my postgraduate course and really wanted to take some time to recover. However, now that I am back, I do worry how firms will view this year... I am now doing much better mentally and am fully dedicated to completely throwing myself into applications. However, given I still have a few months before the start of the application cycle, I was wondering if it is advisable for me to try and get a full-time paralegal job (or any job), so it doesn't look like I am still unemployed prior to applying? Or would my employment-status not be a huge issue at the time of application? Would appreciate any advice! [/QUOTE]
