Application tips
Know your goals
Creating an application that stands out from the crowd can be challenging.
Make sure you know what’s required by familiarizing yourself with the skills we look for and prepare some examples to demonstrate your experience of each.
Always keep your CV concise
Keep your CV to no more than 2 pages with simple design and readable font style and size.
Be accurate
Ensure your application is free from spelling and grammatical errors – attention to detail is a fundamental skill for a lawyer.
When it comes to interviews, getting feedback on how you come across in an interview scenario from someone you don’t know can be really helpful before the event.
Make the most of your work experience
If you have completed legal or non-legal, commercial or any other kind of work experience, think about what you have learned and observed. You may, for example, have made a recommendation for improving a process or have handled a difficult customer.
Using examples like this shows that you have learned from your experience.
Research the Firm
We recognize that you’ll be applying to a number of law firms but it’s your individual approach and attention to our firm that will help set you apart. It’s worth taking the time to focus on each individual application – it may take longer but the effort will be worth it if you secure an interview.
Show a rounded personality
We expect academically successful candidates but your application will stand out if you show that you have experienced life outside the library. Try to demonstrate your responsibilities and your capacity to shape events, committees and outcomes.
