Eligibility and selection criteria
As every law firm will tell you, excellent academics are essential. We look for candidates who have 320 UCAS points at A Level (including at least one A grade) or equivalent. However, we require more than just academic ability. We also look for candidates who can demonstrate the following:
- an enthusiasm and a drive to succeed
- team working skills as a player and a leader
- resilience and strength of character
- initiative and a sense of responsibility
- versatility and an innovative approach
- an analytical and logical mind
- excellent communication skills and the ability to adapt them to your audience.
We believe in having a diverse workforce which is why we don't just look for candidates from Oxbridge and "red-brick" universities. We welcome applications from all universities as well as candidates who have already left university as well as mature candidates who are considering a career change.
