A podcast from Amelia Platton for all those in law and professional services who don’t quite fit in. Each week on the podcast they talk to a different diverse thinker about their experience.
Tune in to get tips, insights, and ideas as they explore difficult topics such as neurodiversity and mental health in work, university, and employment processes.
In this episode they speak with Sana Malik, a prospective Bird & Bird Trainee Solicitor and LPC student with ADHD and Dyspraxia. They discuss Sana’s experience getting diagnosed and navigating her Paralegal and Banking roles and Legal Internships with undiagnosed neurodivergence, then they talk about rejection during four unsuccessful application rounds and how she got a TC.
Finally, we hear Sana’s insights into what more the legal sector can do for neurodiversity, building inner confidence, and what drew her to her current firm, Bird & Bird, an international law firm with a focus on technology.
