  • In this video, I talk about what life is like after law school and what if you are like me, who once graduated from law school without a training contract or a job offer. I explained how you can still stand out as a law graduate and get a job after law school.

    Hi Gordon, could you make a video regarding SQE and the pathway to get a lawyer job after passing SQE?

    Hey, this was so useful as I will soon be in the same position! Just wondering, how did you find the bar exam, difficulty wise?

      It’s not easy to be honest, send me a message on LinkedIn (Gordon Chung) or ig (gordonchung) if you have any specific question :)

    Hi Gordon, I want to do an LLM but I'm not sure which area to go for (I'm interested in a few that are very different from each other). How did you decide which specialism to go for? What made you choose what you studied? Thanks.

      I think it depends on your career ambition too - if you fancy corporate stuff, you have more opportunities in international firms around the world

    Would you please introduce different practice areas of a solicitor as I am quite confused with the term "commercial solicitor"? Can a solicitor be not "commercial" if he is not working in the government? What is the actual meaning of a "commercial solicitor"? And some solicitors may deal with private clients rather than corporate, so is he still a "commercial solicitor"? Thanks in advance🙏

    • @GordonChung

      This is a very confused term for law students but in most law firms, many areas of law inevitably involve some elements of commercial affairs so city law firms use this term loosely to refer to the nature of their work!

    Is doing a year in project financing(in your domestic country) with the LPC from the UK increase your chances? Or after the LPC opt for a paralegal job or something similar and during that time take the SQE and qualify as a solicitor? Please reply as soon as possible.

      Hi, I can’t give advice on which route is better for sure but I think experience in corporate work will help you with your applications especially if you work on more global transaction back home
