Recruiters need to understand three things from your application: why this career, why this firm and why you. This practical session will take you behind the scenes of law-firm recruitment, exploring how applications may be assessed and how criteria, scoring frameworks and recruiter calibration can shape the process.

You’ll learn how to make your evidence easier to identify, research firms with purpose and build a considered shortlist before you apply. We’ll also explore how to use AI responsibly to support your research and challenge your thinking without replacing your own voice.
