We are approaching the busiest time of year for aspiring lawyers when it comes to applying for insight events, vacation schemes and training contracts. If you are balancing this work with your normal university workload, or even another job, this can be especially stressful. The deadlines seem to be approaching fast, you have done most (if not all) of your research, and now it is time to do the hardest part – actually sitting down and filling out the application forms.

Pursuing a career in law is hard. It’s as simple as that. It can feel like you’re the only person not securing vacation schemes or training contracts as your peers post their new roles at firms all over LinkedIn and Instagram – and you can’t work out where it is that you’re going wrong. It’s an easy mindset to fall into but it’s vital to take a step back, reassess, breathe and go again. We spoke to several aspiring lawyers whose routes into law were either put on hold, made difficult because of their background or disrupted as a result of the pandemic. This feature aims to show you that you’re not the only one having a bumpy ride into the legal world.
