With job opportunities expected to grow by 22 percent through 2016, and with an annual median salary of over $40,000, it’s no wonder so many people want to become a paralegal. So what can you do to get your foot through the door and into this fast growing field?

What Does a Paralegal Do?
Paralegals are also called “legal assistants” for good reason–they assist lawyers. Although they can’t argue a case in court or perform other tasks classified as “practicing law,” they can do just about everything else a lawyer does.

Q : If I send my CV to a sales recruitment agency,
will they then send it on to companies without my knowledge?

A : They certainly shouldn’t do. Sales recruitment
agencies have a duty of care once they have your details. By law they
need specific permission from you in order to send any of your
personal details anywhere. Once you have entrusted them with your CV
they have a duty of care to keep these details completely
confidential. On your first approach, you may find the odd consultant
try to be clever by asking your permission to send your CV in at
short notice without a call to you, in order not to ‘miss the boat’.
this is an attempt to achieve license to send your CV out anywhere,
any time. Make sure you are clear, in writing, that you don’t want
your CV sent anywhere without written permission first.

In the UK, the Graduate Jobs market is
always one of the most competitive sectors of the economy. In times
of high unemployment, or even recession, the competition is likely to
be even more brisk.

The serious candidate in this Graduate Jobs
arena therefore needs to be thoroughly professional in his/her
approach to the whole applications process. If there is any possible
“edge” to be had by focussing in tightly on the application
process, it needs to be investigated and, if possible, exploited.
