Deciding who to interview from the hundreds of excellent applications is no easy task and unfortunately we don't have the manpower to meet everyone!
At the CV stage, we are looking for a well structured CV that displays a combination of academic excellence, leadership and people skills. Being technically brilliant at the law is a definite asset but excellent communication and people skills are equally as important. At the end of the day, a career in the law involves dealing with a diverse range of people and communicating what is often technical legal information into plain language. Being able to get along well with both colleagues and clients is very important.
Once you reach the interview stage, we will be looking to assess how you carry yourself and how you interact with others. Your enthusiasm and energy are also highly regarded, so make sure they shine through!
From past experience, we’ve determined what qualities our most successful DibbsBarker lawyers possess.
We’re looking for:
-
friendly, motivated people who are good communicators
-
excellent academic records and qualifications
-
interest in our areas of specialisation
-
strong technical skills
-
great attitude and enquiring mind
-
well-rounded people with personal and community interests.
