Our career information day

We will be holding  a career information day at our Edinburgh office this September. The day is aimed at students aged 14 to 18 who have an interest in a career in law or as a business professional in the legal sector.

At the information day, students can expect to enjoy:

• a general introduction to Burges Salmon
• insights into what a lawyer does and the experiences of trainee and qualified lawyers
• insights into different career options across our business service departments (IT, Finance, Operations, People and Marketing to name a few)
• advice on application-writing and interview preparation
• group and team building activities 
• the opportunity to meet like-minded peers and collaborate 

Feedback from previous student attendees:

“I really enjoyed attending the Law Information Day. I have developed a much better understanding for law through the variety of activities we took part in".

“The information gained from today's event has massively helped to ‘narrow' down my career options.”

“Has made me more inspired to study law”.
