Congrats!! When was your virtual presentation if you don’t mind me asking ?Osborne Clarke AC !! Seen others got it so please message me ))
There is some great advice in these threads and posts:Hi guys, does anyone have any tips on how to best to tackle converting a 10,000 black interns summer internship to a TC where the firm considers the summer interns for a TC.
I don’t think there is any harm in asking. They may not be able to extend of their own deadlines mean it can’t go beyond this date, but there is absolutely no harm in asking whether it can.@Jessica Booker do you know how firms feel about asking for an extension on Blended Assessment VI? I recently had 3 wisdom teeth removed surgically and the post-op recovering is taking longer than I expected. I’m afraid I won’t recover enough to do the VI before the deadline.
Continue to work on my job. Trust me, time fliesThose who have concluded this cycle without a TC or VS, what do you plan to do whilst presumably waiting for the next cycle? Also, those last cycle who didn't get anything, what did you do in the meantime?
honestly try and get a job as a paralegal and if not im eyeing up on doing a masters because im quite interested in pursuing commercial law and understanding it a bit further [totally not an interview answer]Those who have concluded this cycle without a TC or VS, what do you plan to do whilst presumably waiting for the next cycle?

They do give an option for part-time but doubt they'll accept students tbh. Could be wrong thounrelated q but does flex legal only look for full time? I was looking to go into it part time but im still a student, idk how successful that'll be?
Hey I’m a non-law student and felt the same when looking at paralegal roles because a lot of them required law degrees. I would look at legal assistant roles - you get to do slightly similar work, learn a lot and they are more open to non-law. I’m an assistant at a MG firm and really enjoy it!Thanks for the replies! As a non-law student, I am struggling to apply to paralegal jobs given I have limited experience in commercial law. It is hard as law firms want legal experience, but to get this experience I need to already have had previous legal work. Apologies if this doesn't make sense and all advice welcomed!
sorry I meant non-law *graduate - still clearly in the student mindset hahaHey I’m a non-law student and felt the same when looking at paralegal roles because a lot of them required law degrees.
