Applications & Interviews

Making the transition from university and student life to the workforce begins with the process of applications and interviews. This process can be daunting, especially in a climate of such competition for graduate positions.

It is important that you spend time in preparing your application. Allow yourself time to do some 'blue sky dreaming' to consider your strengths, motivation, likes, career opportunities, organisations and areas of law which interest you. Brainstorm these ideas and note them down. Discuss with those who know you well to get their input - maybe someone can point out that you have missed a vital option!
