What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?
Be yourself. There isn't any 'one size fits all' model of a Trainee at Bond Dickinson, and each application is considered on its own merits. As such we have a wide variety of Trainees with many different backgrounds and experiences, yet many experiences fall into obvious categories; academics, work experience, previous career, travel. What will help you to stand out from the crowd is allowing your personality to shine through in your application, and showing what you took from the experiences you have had is crucial to defining that; after all, you are unique where your experiences may not be.
Do you have any interview tips?
Be prepared. Make sure you know the difference between a practice area and a sector, and that you can comprehensively discuss the sort of work that Bond Dickinson does. More importantly, be sure you can detail what you have to offer the firm in relation to that work.
Show great communication skills. Being able to contribute to a discussion is great, but communication is more than showing the speaking and listening skills you possess. For example, if a fellow applicant has been particularly quiet during a discussion, why not ask them for their opinion? That shows awareness of others, which is key to good communication.
