Hey there

Have you ever wondered why some applicants get multiple internships and vacation schemes whilst others get overlooked?

It’s not intelligence, or talent, or dedication. It isn’t that one applicant wants it more than the other.

The difference lies in what each applicant knows and how he or she makes use of that knowledge.

On Thursday, April 3, we’re hosting an exclusive insider session with a legal graduate recruiter with years of experience at Herbert Smith Freehills and other top international firms.

She’s reviewed thousands of applications, and now she’ll share exactly what works (and what doesn’t).

So if you don’t want to miss on:

  • The truth about what firms really look for

  • How to craft an application that demands attention

  • Insider strategies to ace the entire recruitment process

*We don’t know when (or if) we’ll be able to offer you more opportunities if you don’t engage with this one.

But how did two companies come to control the global payment industry?

It all started with a forgotten wallet at a restaurant in 1950… and led to one of the most powerful financial dupolies in history.

Now, they’re under scrutiny for charging excessive fees, and regulators are fighting back.
