[QUOTE="Saloman_Dormeus, post: 228994, member: 43458"] Hi Amullin, I really wouldn’t worry about this. Firms are very used to applications having minor date overlaps or typos, especially where someone’s been in continuous employment. It’s extremely unlikely they’ve interpreted this as you having a decade+ of paralegal experience or that it played any part in the decision to give you a test invite. That said, I’d probably suggest flagging it briefly for transparency, especially if it’s playing on your mind. A short, factual email is more than enough — e.g. [I]“I’ve just noticed a date overlap in my work experience section and wanted to clarify that my paralegal role ran from 2012–2013.”[/I] Grad rec will understand it was an honest admin error.
