When looking for work as a Legal Secretary for the first time, you will come across job adverts which state that experienced is required. It is important to keep in mind that whilst some law firms will be looking for experienced Legal Secretaries, there are also recruiters who are keen to take on someone who has recently graduated with a good Legal Secretary qualification. There are entry level positions out there, it's just a matter of knowing how and where to find them.

If you take a look at ILSPA's Legal Secretary Jobs Board, you will see that you can perform a search to find your perfect job. As well as being able to specify what area of the country you want to work in, there is the option to specify your exact level of experience, such as trainee or junior.

At the moment, there is a great vacancy for a junior Legal Secretary at Meaby & Co Solicitors, as well as a position for a Legal Secretary at Benson Mazure, where experience is preferred but not essential. If you have graduated with ILSPA's Legal Secretaries Diploma, you will have gained valuable legal knowledge and skills which will enable you to not only apply for entry level positions, but also vacancies such as the one Benson Mazure have advertised.

Make sure that you have a good look around at all the different options available to you when performing your job search. If you need any advice, please do not hesitate to contact us.
