I loved chatting to everyone as I dropped their post off and became particularly interested in the work that the HR team did.<\/p>\n<p>I was offered an apprenticeship in their team and have been working on the graduate recruitment cycle ever since. I made the move from generalist HR to&nbsp;specialising in recruitment&nbsp;a few years after, and I have never looked back.<\/p>\n<p>My favourite time of the working year is training contract offer day!<\/p>\n<p><strong>What will&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/soyouwanttobeasolicitor\/\">soyouwanttobeasolicitor<\/a>&nbsp;focus on?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d like to give people an insight into the application process, because the stages we go through and what we\u2019re looking for aren\u2019t necessarily widely known.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ll post some key application dates soon, alongside more tips and information about different elements of the grad cycle.<\/p>\n<p>My aim is to stay anonymous so that we can have real and honest conversations about what goes down with your application. I\u2019m also happy to take any questions through the DMs on the page.<\/p>\n<p>As the page evolves, I\u2019d like to share some information on professional skills such as networking, time recording, business development and personal brand with some help from my legal network.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is the best way to network with a graduate recruiter?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not through LinkedIn! I love LinkedIn a lot, but I get messages from students all the time and there are only so many \u201chow was your weekend?\u201d messages that we have time to respond to. Feel free to connect on LinkedIn as we usually share key application info on our LinkedIns, but if you want to chat to us, please don\u2019t send loads of messages.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m most responsive over email, you can find the graduate recruitment email address on a firm\u2019s website on the grad pages.<\/p>\n<p>The best way to get noticed by a recruiter is at a law fair or firm open day; I tend to remember people I\u2019ve spoken to in person\/on zoom.<\/p>\n<p>After having a good conversation with a prospective applicant, I\u2019ll make a note of their name and add it to the watchlist on our application portal. This means that I\u2019ll get an email notification when that person applies to the firm and it\u2019ll match my notes up to the application.<\/p>\n<p>Ask good questions, be friendly and enthusiastic about the firm and you might end up on a watchlist!<\/p>\n<p><strong>How long do you spend on an application before making a decision on it?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Not as long as you might think. I know that sucks as you guys spend so much time on your applications, but we see thousands every year and to spend longer than about a minute at first sift would take too long. I\u2019m all for spending an evening reading TC applications but there are only so many hours in the day\/night!<\/p>\n<p>When we first look at an application, we make sure you meet our minimum requirements (mitigating circumstances are considered) and that you have referenced elements specific to the firm.<\/p>\n<p>The application will then be reviewed at another 2 stages at least, by different members of the graduate recruitment or HR team in more detail. At these stages, we tend to spend at least 5 minutes reading the application thoroughly.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s here that we\u2019re checking the quality of your written questions, the research you\u2019ve done on the firm, and your dedication to a career in law. The top applications we\u2019ve reviewed will then be sent a Watson Glaser or equivalent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What kinds of mistakes will make you reject an application?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Personally, I don\u2019t discredit applications on spelling\/grammatical errors, but I have worked with people that will immediately reject an application upon seeing a spelling mistake or misuse of punctuation \u2013 so be careful!<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also nothing worse than seeing \u201cI\u2019m applying to [name of wrong firm] because\u2026\u201d (it does happen!) when people are copying and pasting their answers. It\u2019s also frustrating when applicants haven\u2019t researched the firm and reference a practice area our firm doesn\u2019t actually have\u2026<\/p>\n<p>I understand that applications take up a lot of your time, but you must make sure you tailor them to each firm you apply to.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How important are mitigating circumstances? Do you judge how genuine they are?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Mitigating circumstances are taken seriously, we don\u2019t ask for them as a box checking exercise \u2013 we\u2019re genuinely interested!<\/p>\n<p>I will say now, there are limits with mitigating circumstances. Last year I saw \u201cI didn\u2019t go to private school\u201d as a mitigating circumstance for 3 Ds at A-Level. Be mindful that the people reading your application may not have come from a place of privilege either, so don\u2019t insult them!<\/p>\n<p>On the flip side, I\u2019ve seen a fair few applications with mitigating circumstances that have made me tear up a bit. If you have a genuine reason for not achieving your potential, please do outline this on your application \u2013 we do take them into account!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Are applicants with no legal experience or a gap in the CV at a disadvantage?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Legal work experience throughout the pandemic has been like gold dust, we know full well how difficult it has been to get work experience this year and last.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst we\u2019re looking for experience that aligns to the role that we hope to hire you to do, we\u2019re also looking for potential.<\/p>\n<p>I usually encourage applicants to add all of their work experience, be it in a cafe or as a child minder, as these roles develop skills that you can transfer to a legal career (not saying that some partners need babysitting\u2026!). You should also include any volunteering at law clinics or your extra-curricular activities, such as mooting or debate society activities.<\/p>\n<p>I wouldn\u2019t say that those without legal experience are disadvantaged, but it is preferred. Professional services experience is highly regarded for most firms too.<\/p>\n<p>I wouldn\u2019t reject an application due to a gap on the CV, but if you do have one, it would be helpful to know what you were doing or if you had mitigating circumstances to explain this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Good grades but no work experience or sub-par academics with legal work experience? Which applicant would you choose, solely on those parameters?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>My preference is experience over grades every time. Maybe it\u2019s because I didn\u2019t go to university myself, but an applicant would need to be hitting the minimum grade requirements for us to be looking at the work experience anyway, so my focus would be on experience instead of the grades.<\/p>\n<p>Ultimately, when we\u2019re looking at an application, we\u2019re looking to see if you could do the work that a trainee does. The best way to evidence this is by showcasing the responsibilities and tasks you\u2019ve undertaken in previous roles, and aligning them to those of a trainee.<\/p>\n<p><strong>GCSE\/A level grades or university grades, which ones are more important?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>University grades are the most important, followed by A-Levels. I don\u2019t pay much attention to GCSEs unless it\u2019s down to the wire and we can\u2019t choose between two candidates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My legal career started
