hey girl, pls i need your help! how did you get a paralegal job?

[@legaltalkwithshazzy]

Hey Babe so my school the SA Law school made it a requirement to volunteer at a firm and that’s how I did it 🤍

[@yolandad]

You did that!!!!!🔥

[@legaltalkwithshazzy]

Thank you!! ❤❤❤

[@msweli1232]

If I’m understanding this as someone who is not in law. As a paralegal you’re in a junior position but as a CA you’re in a mid level position? Or junior management

[@legaltalkwithshazzy]

As a Paralegal you’re junior to a CA who you support ♥️

I want to ask how can you become a corporate lawyer after graduating as a paralegal?

[@legaltalkwithshazzy]

Hi Mmakgoshi, to become a corporate lawyer, you first need to study for an complete your LLB. Once you have completed your LLB and articles, you write your board exams and then get admitted as an Attorney.
Unfortunately, as a Paralegal you do not qualify as a lawyer as yet.
