[QUOTE="Lastseasonwonder, post: 214553, member: 4218"] I feel I am in a little bit of a pickle, but I can't be the only one, right? Does anyone else work full-time? I am a few years since graduating and despite a few vac schemes, I have no TC offer. I am in a legal role now but it is not permanent and I have recently found myself worrying a lot about next steps. Last cycle, I was quite burn out for multiple reasons and didn't apply to many, but I said to myself that I want to give applications a strong go this cycle and see what happens, but I'm not sure what job I will take up after my current one. I have tried for paralegal roles at law firms, but they always want very specific experience in X practice area. And even then, would this be a good idea? Working long hours and little time to apply for TCs. It feels very crushing doing such jobs because you know your heart is not fully in it (no progression) and you know what you want is a TC to progress your career. What should I do please? Should I apply for Master's degrees? Should I continue working full-time? I have spent so much time and energy since graduating thinking about this odd situation (honestly, there is nothing like being a law grad!) and even thought about alternative careers because of lack of progression and development. But I think I still want to do a TC and qualify as a lawyer. Would really appreciate any advice, and if you are in a similar situation, feel free to DM me. Let's talk! [/QUOTE]
