The ReImagineLAW team welcome guests Joseph Toft, second year LLB Law student and Jessica Piggot a solicitor at Reed Smith LLP.

Joseph discusses the actions from episode 3 and speaks with Jess about her career pathway of not undertaking a law degree.

This episode encourages listeners to undertake some practical actions after listening to the episode:

  1. Topics you initially aren't considering might surprise you: talk to a fellow student or tutor about a module in next year's course you know little about.
  2. Talk to someone working in the sector you are considering: and then ask them "What other routes did you consider?".
  3. Do something which stretches yourself and takes you out of your comfort zone in relation to you educational and/or career path.
