@bendmeoverbackwards - good to see you here again.
There’s a thread about law conversions which you may have seen that has contributions from people in the know.
There are some testy exchanges but it’s worth checking out if you’ve not done.
Does your Dd have an idea of roughly what practice area might interest her? Does she want corporate? A lot of the discussion on the other thread is about the big corporate firms which have very strict entry processes. For some, the route to TC is through their vacation scheme and it’s very difficult to get these once you’ve finished your degree course.
There are decent size firms in London and regional firms that offer corporate work (if that’s what she wants) and their processes may not be so rigid but they’ll all be very competitive as there are few places for the number of applicants.
What about the firms she worked at - would she be interested in training at any of these? Has she considered paralegal work? In my last role a few paralegals in the team were offered a TC but they had to do the grind of about a couple of years. Some end up not getting an offer, some become career paralegals.
But that experience is invaluable as paralegals are doing the work of trainees and even NQs in some cases.
My Dd1 who was at Bristol with yours considered law briefly but I don’t think she really wanted it and I told her to think very carefully about how much she wanted it before embarking on that path.
Dd2 is in penultimate year of law degree and has all the advantages of being able to access the TC processes so it’s a different ball game for her. But it did highlight for me in a very personal way the difference in qualification routes they would have.
I wish your Dd all the best in the next steps. She sounds very determined and that will serve her well.
