Whether you’re just beginning your research or already deep into the application cycle, you’ll gain actionable insights to help you move closer to your legal career goals.

The workshop will be led by Rob Dudley, head of employability & engagement at BARBRI. Rob, alongside a panel of those who have successfully secured training contracts, will share first-hand experiences, discuss what worked for them throughout the application process and offer practical tips to help aspiring solicitors stand out.

The workshop will be followed by virtual networking with the speakers and members of the BARBRI careers team, offering attendees the chance to ask questions, build connections and approach the application process with greater confidence.
