Applying to a law firm can feel daunting, particularly when you’re unsure what recruiters are really looking for or whether your experiences are relevant. This interactive session will help you look at your existing skills in a new way and understand how experiences from part-time work, extracurricular activities, volunteering and beyond can strengthen your applications.

Through live polls and a practical skills audit, you’ll identify the transferable skills you already possess and explore how to demonstrate them effectively throughout the recruitment process. You’ll also hear from junior lawyers reflecting on what they wish they had known before applying, with practical advice on navigating the journey into law and the opportunity to ask your own questions.
