Actually there can be no shortcuts to getting or managing a legal job in any city in any part of the world. But there can be a few secrets which will make the process quite enjoyable and managing a job as a paralegal will turn out to be quite exciting. In order to bag a good job, you have to ensure that you are giving a fantastic performance when it comes to appearing for the interviews.
You must remember the point of preparing before time. You must make sure that you are highly equipped in all ways before you interview commences. This is really crucial. You must reach the venue before time so that you can avoid the time of going around searching for the place frantically and land up looking confused in front of the panel. Try to find out the designation of the person who is likely to interview you. These questions should relate to your growth process in the company and also some individual questions on the company. Specific questions like the nature and extent of client base, culture of the firm and many more questions will make them take you quite seriously. Have a very thorough look at your own resume so that you can find out some points in which you can drive your panel to question you. Try to observe the strong points so that you are able to make them question you on them. Be prepared with some questions that you can choose to ask them.
Always remember that you must make a great first impression, since all law firms, good or bad justly and unjustly form their opinions based on the first impression. You will never be allowed to make a second appearance in front of them to rectify the mistake that you have made earlier. Firstly as I mentioned, you must make sure that you arrive there on time and feel very confident to display your accomplishments. Do not feel embarrassed or think that you are being pompous by making a display of your capabilities in front of your panel.
Greet the interviewer properly and thank him after the end of the interview. So be very courteous as this is something which is highly appreciated in this field (law field).Remember that you interviewers are very confident about the qualities that they are looking for in a candidate. So do not try to bluff them or be over smart enough to ask them or tell them anything before they intend to ask you.
You must be prepared with a short paragraph about the previous legal job that you were engaged in and what made you enjoy that. Also be prepared with an answer to tell them that how much you have learnt from your previous job. You must leave the hall with a high note of course to make them remember you as a pleasant and confident candidate. So if you can prepare yourself in this way then I am quite sure that you will see many paralegal jobs in sight for yourself in your own country.
