I graduated with a History BA (Hons) from King’s College London and subsequently completed the GDL and LPC at BPP University Law School, London.<\/p>\n

Before deciding on a career in law, I worked in a diverse range of roles and industries during university: I was a Medical Laboratory Assistant and Phlebotomist in the NHS, an Intern at a City bank, a Sales Consultant at a major car dealership and also ran my own small business.<\/p>\n

During my applications, I realised the difficulty students with no pre-existing connections in the legal profession have, particularly in obtaining detailed insight on what a career in law actually entails and how to decide which firms are best suited to one\u2019s interests and aspirations.<\/p>\n

Aspiring Solicitors have been invaluable in providing such guidance and I will be delighted to provide assistance to anyone considering a career in law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":13412,"template":"","acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nOmar W | Addleshaw Goddard | Aspiring Solicitors - Law Careers Diversity Advice<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"I graduated with a History BA (Hons) from King's College London and subsequently completed the GDL and LPC at BPP University Law School, London.
