I'm a qualified solicitor and was recently let go because of the whole conveyancing falling off a cliff business... Am delighted because I hated the profession anyway. I've been applying for any office/administration job because I really don't care what I do, but am getting nowhere. How do I get past the fact that I'm not overqualified for lots of jobs, yet I'm also underqualified for anything else?
I think my problem is that employers outside the legal profession must find it hard to understand why someone would happily be paid a fraction of their previous salary for some peace of mind! Anyone in similar situation? I'd image there's plenty of us out there, and the architects and engineers must be getting hit hard too?
