I wanted to ask what can we do,if in a situation of passed LLB but still not yet finish CLP?
coz I am facing some financial constraint after finish LLB,and in need to gather some money to cover up my cost and expenses to study CLP,is it possible to full time working for one year and study back again CLP later? or better,working while studying?

From what advised from some of my senior,the only way to earn money with a single LLB cert is to became a lecturer,but subject to the result,only 2:1 and above is likely to be employed..other than that,the LLB without CLP is just a piece of plain paper with your name on it.. unsure.gif  even worst if got 2:2 and below,it will be like a piece of toilet paper mad.gif ...no offence,but that is what my seniors told me..

I was wondering about this too.. and whether its possible to work in private sector, dealing with legal procedures in law firms etc if we only have LLB and no CLP. Would appreciate if anyone can give their input notworthy.gif

i could clear your doubt on this,some of my friends manage to get position as legal clerk,but i would say it highly depending on your social network...coz almost,99 percents of my friends got those position by ways of father's company,father's friend's company,and etc...in normal situation wise,i think it is possible but...unlikely... sweat.gif

coz malaysia law and uk/nz/aus law has huge differences in procedural...

Legal clerk means they do not step into court but only do legal paperwork etc is it? Is their pay very low? And it is not the type of job they are planning to stick to for the rest of their career right?

And about the differences in legal procedures, do you mean that employers prefer those with knowledge of Malaysian law?Thanks
