If you’re interested in a career in Law, don’t miss the Law Careers Fair taking place virtually this year on Careers Fair Plus and on our Blackboard Organisation, Careers 247.

It’s a great opportunity to meet employers, network, and learn more about the career options available to you. Helpful and suitable for all students interested in Law as a career path, not just Law students and finalists!

You can browse the Career Fair Plus app to find out more about the employers participating, their webinars and to book 1:1 Employer Chats (details will start becoming available 4 weeks before).

Employer webinars

Attend webinars (27-28 October) delivered by law firms, organisations and providers looking to recruit to graduate schemes, internships and placements for a 2021 start date.  Find out what they have to offer and experience the live Q&A session.

All available via Blackboard with timings listed in each employer’s profile on Careers Fair Plus. Recordings will be available post-event.

Employer 1:1 Chats

Book a 10 minute telephone appointment with your favourite employers/organisations for Thursday 29 October (take a look at their availability via the app from Tuesday 20 October).
