Application process

Assessment Centre & Insight Day:

Our assessment centre will take place in February 2027, and further details will be shared closer to the time.

Candidates are invited to an insight day at the office which takes place the day before the assessment centre. This gives you more insight into the firm and the recruitment process. You'll get the chance to ask your final questions, get to know the office and meet the other candidates. The insight day isn't part of the recruitment process. It's designed to make you as prepared and ready as possible to give your best at the assessment centre.

Please visit our website and review our Opportunities and FAQs pages ahead of making this application.

We recommend you sign up to Dentons Next.Talent to stay up to date with our insight events and reminders around application deadlines.

Our applications open on 29 October 2026.

Applications close at 12pm (noon) on 18 December 2026. Please note that we will not be able to accept applications submitted after the closing deadline. We strongly recommend submitting your application well before the deadline to allow time to resolve any unexpected issues and ensure your application is received on time.
