What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?

The vast majority of successful candidates are educated at Oxford or Cambridge, so ideally you should try to go to one of those two universities.

Make sure your cover letter is well written and you have interesting extra-curricular things to talk about. There are no psychometric tests or long application forms asking about using leadership, working as part of a team or overcoming adversity, so the cover letter is key.

Do you have any interview tips?

The interview is basically just a conversation about your CV, so make sure you know that very well. It is actually quite a relaxed process, even though it is an hour long interview with two partners. They are looking for you to show that you are interested in working at the firm and also that you are an interesting person, so it won't all be legal questions.
