I also have a few years of contracts drafting experience, but work is quite administrative sometimes and my pay is shit and am only surviving. Cant really live a full life or even look forward to one with such pay. Getting more and more depressed with each job application.

For almost a year, I cant even get an interview. Last year similar months I still got a few. I got quite a lot when I got my current job. Is it me or is it the market? I have tailored my CV for each application.

Where do you guys look for jobs apart from Linkedin and Indeed (which I think is crap), law school career websites?

I also tried to apply to compliance roles but it seems the door is completely shut for entry level applicants (meaning those that doesnt have direct compliance experience at all)

Also traditional TCs feel completely out of reach.

I am completely lost.

Was still getting interviews last year or the year before, this year I cant even get one…

My CV should have been better than a few years ago… at least I have got some legal experience now on it… but I just am not getting any interviews from maybe Nov Dec last year? openings (more entry level ones) seem to have declined a lot too???

Only noticed after I went home,

I missed out two key words, applied facts to the test (should have done this part quite well), but also added irrelevant tests to it.

Judge asked me about it, I still wasnt aware I missed this.

Will I get a 2 fopr FLK?

Probably 3-4 for skills.

Average of my other stations probably just fluctuating around 60%...

and since they scale the marks, I am not sure if I can get pass than 300 mark. =(

I guess I am one of those who will fail by 0.1%-1%

There are papers/ orals that I think I did ok, but just dont know if I can reach 4-5.

Similarly, there are ones I think I probably failed, but not sure if I will get a 1 or 2, or even 0 (especially for interviewing)

So for each station, skills are graded 0-5 and FLK 0-5, so a total of 10 or 100% can be given to each station?

Completely lost. How do I even know if I have asked or adviced everything I need to?

Only thing I am more certain about:

• Opening: Self intro, ask for client info
• Ask more open ended questions, show sympathy, understanding
• Main Q&A: no idea how to prepare
• Wrapping up: ask again if I need to know anything else or if there are any other questions?
• Mention any next steps
