Hi bobotis,

We are holding a GDL Open Evening Monday 9th March if you would like to attend? Our Careers Team will be available to speak to you, and if you would like to ask them any questions in more details they will be happy to discuss the enquirer’s prospects with you.

By the sounds of your experience, and the fact that you are studying a non-legal undergraduate degree, you should have already gained a lot of commercial awareness. When applying for a TC, firms are eager to hear about what commercial awareness you have so I would suggest you develop how you can demonstrate these skills in your application/ interview.

If you have any further questions, please get in touch.

Best Wishes
Lucy
