Your Route into Law: Why Firms hire Business, Management & Technology Grads

Curious why your commercial or technical thinking is valued in some of the most competitive and well-paid graduate roles in the UK?

Are you a Business (Business Management, Accounting, Finance, Economics, Technology) student or graduate wondering why firms actively recruit people like you into legal careers?

Curious why your commercial thinking is valued in some of the most competitive and well-paid graduate roles in the UK?

AllAboutLaw is hosting a free live online session with Lindsey, a legal graduate recruiter with 15+ years’ experience, to break it down clearly and answer your questions.  The session will last c. 45 mins.

Around half of law firm hires come from non-law degrees. In this session, Lindsey will explain how employers value strengths like commercial awareness, communicating clearly with stakeholders, analysing risk and trade-offs, and making sound judgements, all of which translate directly into legal work.

By the end, you’ll be clearer on:
- Why your Business, Finance or Technology background is genuinely relevant to law firms
- The typical routes into law, and what to do next
- How to translate your skills into applications, interviews and work experience

You’ll also have the chance to ask your questions in a live Q&A. If you want a candid, practical view of how to move from Business into law, this session is for you.
