In law it directly\u00a0applies, as these are skills you don&#8217;t usually get to test until you go into training. But in any career, the ability to communicate, be critical, confident and work as a team will stand you in good stead when looking for a job.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Work Experience<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you aren&#8217;t sure whether you want to be a lawyer, this is really useful. Also, the York Law School offers &#8220;link days&#8221; with law firms so you can have a day or two to see what it&#8217;s like. These are usually in October-November and February. You could just go and sit in a court room for a day to get a feel for it.<\/p>\n<p>The student-run Law Society do events like socials, law firm insight evenings and the biggest event of the year is the Law Careers Dinner during which law firms send trainees to come and talk with you. You pick a table hosted by the firm you are interested in and sit with them. They provide a lot of networking opportunities and the chance to find out what working at a law firm is really like.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know it&#8217;s a little early to start thinking about careers, but let it comfort you that at York, you have a lot of guidance and support along the way.
