Are you a LLB or
Joint Honours Law student?
Are you
interested in a legal career?
Are you undecided
about whether a legal career is for you?
If so, the
Shoosmiths /University of Northampton Student Link Scheme could be for you.
The
objectives of the scheme are to link a law student with an employee of
Shoosmiths. The Shoosmiths employee
could be a solicitor, paralegal, trainee solicitor or indeed any employee of
Shoosmiths who knows how a large firm works and who has chosen a career in law.
A student
will be ‘linked’ to a Shoosmiths employee and this will:
Enable a
student to gain an insight into and understanding of the structure, workings
and variety of positions and jobs within a large law firm and how they
‘fit together'
Enable a
student to assess their ambition to enter the legal profession against the
reality of the world of work within a law firm
Enable the
Shoosmiths employee to provide advice and guidance to the student in respect of
future career options in the legal profession
There are
only 13 places on the scheme. Follow the link to read more about how the
scheme operates and for details of how to apply. The deadline for
applications is Friday 6 December 2013 at 5pm. Successful applicants will
be notified by Friday 13 December 2013.
