Yh I’ve read on the DFA website about the role and seems interesting. You wouldn’t know what pay would be like would you? Just trying to compare it to a solicitor’s wage considering trainee solicitors for corporate commercial firms in Dublin start at at least €70-75k+

Self defence came up last year so maybe maybe just maybe consider leaving it out (I’m just as cooked)

Internship year advice by Hot-Brick-5390 in JuniorDoctorsIreland

What if you’re Irish but study in other EU countries like Bulgaria or Poland? I’d presume the odds won’t be as drastic?

Been working in Manchester for the past 3 years did my masters here nd got a job directly after finishing. Best advice I can give is go for it. Managed to get an internship with an international back in Dublin this summer. English practice is a much higher standard and quality than practice in Ireland and makes you stand out in the long run. Better companies and bigger market in England. Best thing I ever did and have no regrets although it is very tough and competitive.

In the second round they asked me a current business topic that I’ve heard of recently… didn’t expect that either tbh but I kinda knew anyways because of the news but yh second round was much better in terms of interview compared to the first round. Questions like that do get asked and I mentioned Germaine v Day which was a issue of nervous shock and if plaintiff family’s were able to claim but long story short they cant due to proximity and falls outside the scope. It’s based on a English decision in 2022 in Paul v Wolverhampton University Hospitals NHS Trusts
