Message: <blockquote data-quote="Abbie Whitlock" data-source="post: 227112" data-attributes="member: 42112">Hi!If the role you have started is relevant and genuinely adds value to your application (e.g. giving you more legal exposure, responsibility or skills) then it could be worth updating the graduate recruitment team. Whilst I haven't heard of many instances of this at the application stage, I have encountered this sort of thing in later stages in the process. Many firms do appreciate being informed of developments, but I can't say for certain whether the team will factor it into their decision. Still, a short and polite email is unlikely to reflect negatively, as long as you frame it professionally.You could briefly mention:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">What you have applied for and the date you applied</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">That you've since started a new legal role</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">A brief sentence on what experience / skills you're gaining</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">That you wanted to share the update in case it's useful for their consideration</li> </ul>If it's relevant and strengthens your profile, it may be worth sending - just make sure to keep it concise!
