Thursday 23-04-2026 - 20:00
Join us for our third CV workshop! Designed to help students gain knowledge, understanding and experience to support their legal career.
This event will feature solicitors from leading firms including Eversheds Sutherland, JMW Solicitors, and Fletchers Solicitors, who will share valuable insight into their career journeys, the realities of life in practice, and what firms look for in successful candidates.
The session will begin with a 45-minute panel discussion. Following the panel, students will have the opportunity to take part in small-group CV reviews, receiving tailored, one-to-one feedback directly from solicitors. This interactive session will also allow you to build meaningful connections, refine your personal pitch, and develop the confidence to present yourself effectively to employers.
Students are encouraged to prepare a short personal introduction using the Elevator Pitch Builder in advance to maximise the value of the session.
As an added opportunity, outstanding participants will be selected to receive a work experience placement, making this event not only a skills workshop but also a direct pathway into the profession!
