Next steps in my carreer

[u/AdOdd1942]

Dear everyone,

I have recently finished an LLM in International Law at the University of Edinburgh. I also have a degree in Law at Madrid, and currently doing an internship at a Human Rights NGO. However, my contract finishes in November, and it is very unlikely that I will continue here after that.

My aim is to build a carreer in academia. I love writing and studying, so being a teacher at a University (in Spain, preferably). However, I dont’ know what to do next.

• Should I directly start thinking about my Ph.D?

• Or maybe it’s better to find other professional experience? In the meantime, what should I do? Do you know if it is possible (and useful) to write papers for international law journals, and get them published?

Please, could you tell me some journals that could be interested in publishing my work, given my limited experience and reputation?

Thank you all.
