Event Details

CALLING THOSE COMING TO THE BAR AFTER A DIFFERENT CAREER OR LATER IN LIFE!

'New Tricks' will be an online session and is free of charge.

The event will look at discussion points designed with the career changing aspiring barrister in mind, tackling topics like:

  • Dispelling the myth that age is a "barrier for success";
  • Reframing previous careers to find unique transferable skills that show you will make a brilliant barrister; 
  • Pitching yourself at pupillage, both in application and in interview, for maximum effect; and
  • Valuing your experience for the real asset it brings both yourself and the future Bar.

We hope the event will serve as a valuable networking opportunity to meet likeminded individuals, make lasting connections, and be at the forefront of a new movement, celebrating life as an "older newcomer" to the Bar!"
