Event Details

This event is intended for students and recently Called members.

Listen and chat to some Middle Temple members that are all at different stages of their pupillage journey: waiting for tenancy, a recent pupil barrister or just starting their second six, they are all here to dispel any misconceptions that you may have about pupillage and to offer constructive tips for the next step in your career.  

They’re here to chat about their experience of pupillage, the common mistakes, the daily successes and their memorable stories (bad and good). Most importantly, they’re here to answer any burning questions you may have about pupillage.

The panel will be: 

  • Srishti Suresh
  • Redmond Traynor
  • Eva Doerr
  • Adiba Bassam

This will be an intimate and informal session, and they want to hear your story as much as you want to listen to theirs!
