OUR CADET Role
CADET RECRUITMENTExciting opportunity for law students to work part-time in a law firm before they graduate.
Work one-on-one with the directors. First year students are encouraged to apply. This is a paid position (not an internship or clerkship). WE'RE LOOKING FORA part-time cadet to join us in solving and delivering better legal solutions for our clients, our business and you. The role is part-time. You choose: two or three days a week.
Similar experience is nice but not essential. Instead, you need to bring innate organising skills so that you can stay on top of the things happening – and there’s a lot happening. Client work, phone calls, meetings, trying new things and finding the gems that work – all the fun things which make the work interesting. We can’t imagine how boring it would be if everything was just same-same. Together we will make a difference to how estate planning and administration services are delivered. If this resonates with you, then you should apply. Because you’re likely to thrive here. What's Involved1. Actual full conduct. No snippets of work here and there. You will have the file from beginning to end and we will take care of the legal advice component. Don’t worry, you won’t be thrown in the deep-end. We have a comprehensive training program. And that takes us to point 2.
2. Learn. We teach you everything you need to know so that you can excel in your role. You will teach us your insights so that we can take our business to another level together. 3. Help and assistance. You instinctively help other team members so that we can achieve our goals as whole. The words 'glamourous work' means nothing to you, as all work is important. SkillsYou must be experienced with Word and have a typing speed of at least 58 wpm.
