apply for jobs as an 'ex-pilot' with and without a degree
The couple of folk whose applications have come onto my desk didn't get any further .. simply because they had nil experience relevant to the position on offer.
I did a LLb (hons) part time over six years
Full marks and a very vocational qualification - presumably you then did your Articles and so on so that you could practice on the side. Even without being on the Roll the commercial world has numerous openings for such folk.
I'm sure he won't mind his name being taken in vain in the post .. John Maitland, whom many on this board will know, did much the same thing some years ago. I guess he was in his 40s at the time (he will, no doubt, beat me to a pulp if I'm too far wrong on that point - I certainly can recall the period when he was doing the degree). Now, he's a good example - extensive GA, ATO, and now has a very active legal practice. Not sure if he still does much flying as it's several years since I last spoke with him.
