Traineeships

 

Aberdein Considine offers a diverse and challenging Traineeship.

What Do We Do?

We are often perceived solely as property lawyers, when in fact, we are a full-service law firm. We do have a large team of Conveyancing solicitors, however their caseloads vary from residential sales to commercial leasing. Our Trainees have the opportunity to work in our extremely successful Family, Corporate and Commercial, Criminal, Litigation and Wills, Trusts and Executries Departments.

What’s the Training Like?

We are a dynamic and forward thinking firm. We expect hard work and enthusiasm from all our Trainees but in return we strive to balance your training with an active work related social life.

Retention

At Aberdein Considine we know that the time spent training our Trainees is an investment. The majority of the current Partners and Associates trained within the Firm and so we view our Trainees as future Partners and Associates. There are no ‘glass ceilings’ within the Firm and those with talent, drive and ambition will see these characteristics recognised at an early stage.

Deadlines

Submissions should be made no later than the last day of October in each year for Traineeships starting in the Summer of the next year but one. (i.e. approximately 18 months later).

How Do I Apply for a Traineeship?

Our recruitment process takes place approximately eighteen months before the anticipated commencement date of the Traineeship. Our Traineeships usually start in May (yes, we are keen).

As a continually expanding firm we do sometimes require to recruit additional Trainees at any given time, speculative applications throughout the year will also therefore be considered.
