Join us on the afternoon of Tuesday 4 November for Legal Cheek’s latest virtual student event with BARBRI.
Landing your first legal role takes more than good grades — employers are looking for candidates who can demonstrate the right skills, experience, and mindset to thrive in practice. In this practical and engaging session, you’ll discover what legal employers and recruiters really value in graduate and trainee applications, and how to present your experience in a way that makes you stand out.
The session begins with a short presentation highlighting the key competencies employers seek, practical tips for enhancing your CV, and strategies for showcasing transferable skills gained through study, work experience, or extracurricular activities.
Following this, a panel of early careers practitioners will share their own journeys — how they built their profiles, what helped them stand out to employers, and their advice for navigating the competitive recruitment process. You’ll have the chance to ask questions and gain authentic insights from those who’ve recently made the transition from student to trainee.
Register to attend above.
