Your articling cover letter is your first shot at marketing yourself to secure an articling position, and you know what they say about first impressions?

S. 1 EP.5 Tips for Drafting the (Near) Perfect Articling Resume

In this episode, I share the tips I was given by a career advisor in one of Canada's foremost law schools, as I hurdled through the task of drafting a resume I felt was perfect enough to be confident in. Good luck on your licensing journey!

S.1 Ep. 4 Applying for Articling before Completing the NCA Process?

In this episode, I preach the message that you do not have to wait until you are completely done with the NCA process before applying for an Articling Process. It is okay to apply in anticipation of your NCA completion, insofar as you will complete the NCA exams before the articling cycle actually resumes, and you can communicate that effectively in your articling application package. Personal experience, not legal advice. As always, good luck on your licensing journey!

S.1 Ep.3 Getting Assessed for Minimum NCA Examinations

In this episode, I share what I was told was a useful strategy to ensure I didn't get assessed to write more than 5 NCA Examinations by the FLSC. Does this strategy work? I have absolutely no idea. Did it work for me? Again, I don't know. Is there any harm in employing it? I think not. Ultimately, I'm simply just copying and pasting a piece of advice I was given four (4) years ago. As always, good luck on your licensing journey!
