PLEASE HELP: Am I doing the right or wrong thing here?

I've recently seen an advert for 'get-into-legal' secretaries advertised on a recruitment agency website. I sent them my CV and got called to say they were interested in seeing me. I've heard you need to be 'thick skinned' to work in legal environs, which I am most definitely not (I'm shy and thin-skinned). I emailed them to ask what kind of a personality their 'get-into-legal' clients are looking for, as I don't want all the hassle of registering with them and then them seeing me as gentle as a dove. Have I done the right thing here? They haven't answered me.

you got to find the job that you LOVE. that will keep you working happily. if you think this job's not for you, then leave.

but if you think you can't leave anymore, think of it as a learning experience. since you're shy, you should develop communication skills in the job that you're going into.

both of these will help, i think. my bottom line, look on the brighter side. haha.

You have done the wrong thing.
pretend/act thats what i do at work. once i leave work im a different person
