Graduate is in business. Therefore, heres a

Law In Business Careers
Firstly, dont think that Law Graduate jobs are
limited. One advantage of being a law graduate is
that you can venture into the field you want to.
Coming back to the point, Business law is not
Corporate law. But, on an exciting note, Business
law consists of Corporate law. Thus, you can
venture out into the world of corporate law like
a free bird. But, if youre looking for
alternatives, you can also make a career in
Commercial Law, etc. The point being, Business
Law is about big and small companies. So no
matter where you go, youll have to face them.
Hopefully, itll be fun for you.

Experience Is The Key
Firstly, dont expect to get a salary of 70K in
your first job. Secondly, you have to accept the
fact that experience is the key in this field.
Moreover, according to payscale.com a lawyer with
less than 1 year of experience gets paid around
GBP 30K on average, while a lawyer with 10 years
of experience gets a salary of GBP 75K on
average. In short, youll have to put in the hard
hours in order to get that handsome paycheck
every month.

Competition
Lastly, the Law in Business careers is decently
competitive. Moreover, a college degree is
certainly not all you need. For instance, a Level
5 DET holder in his/her prime will earn less than
a 1st-year Business Lawyer. Furthermore,
employers are looking for a lot more than a
college degree in you. Career choices can be
confusing, thus Studybridge helps you find the
best career path and the best part is, you can
get in touch with us anytime.
