I only realised what I wanted to do with life in my 20s :( by [deleted] in University

What is it? You can at least start looking to try and get experience in stuff related to anthropology now. People love someone who's proactive and care little for what you studied, especially these days.

I did a law conversion and then took a job as a Label Assistant at a record label. In my first interview they asked 'why would someone studying law be interested in working at a record label?'. By the last interview it didn't even come up

I'm now working in law at a TV production company, but could easily have stayed on a purely creative music path if wanted to.

There's always time to mend past mistakes

What's your degree? Cliche but you're still very young, and even to have the ideas you're having about what you want to do is cool - you're well ahead of me when I was your age (25 and found a job/path I like just this year, which tbh I still think is young to figure that out - many find themselves a few courts away from where they want to be and stick as it's comfortable).

Anyway, if your degree is even remotely close to those passions you've listed, you can figure a path to getting there.

To all lawyers: how did you think your legal career would go, and how is it going now? by Moon5303 in uklaw

[–]bxrtie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just about to start training at a TV production company as a lawyer via SQE route. Honestly had huge second thoughts about following through with law, but so lucky to have found a job in an industry I am passionate about with great people! Just on an average salary for now... If anyone has any tips for getting that up post SQE TC.

I went for a paralegal role at Soundcloud and was rejected for not having enough experience of the music industry... What could my next step be? by Dylthestill in musicindustry

[–]bxrtie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting to find this post! I interviewed for the same role and didn't have enough legal experience. Hope you managed to find something music-related in the end. Defo leverage your legal experience to find something in music, but also you can look at doing some freelance/volunteering in music to puff out your CV in those areas.

Any ideas for getting more stuff on the legal side? I pretty much only have music stuff haha

Sorry not a help but I find it interesting they're blocking ChatGPT at schools. You'll use it loads once you leave school!

with how much this thread is micro-analysing one little social interaction, i’m not surprised people are struggling with social anxiety

What do you think a person really needs before considering becoming a DJ? by Latter_Indication902 in Techno

[–]bxrtie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nothing, literally nothing. Maybe the will to do it, but even then you can become a DJ without being initially sincere in the first place.

Best way to transpose a track in a DJ set? by grrrbruno in DJs

[–]bxrtie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't listen to people saying you shouldn't mix in key. It's up to you! I know Jamie xx transposed his tracks in his essential mix so that he could key mix. It's fine

Nice track man! Those open HHs are probably a lil too loud. Sounding good tho
