To get my job here, I had to undergo a pre-recorded interview, psychometric assessment, two in-person interviews and a 'coffee catch-up', as well as an information evening/cocktail night.

The clerkship requirement process proves to be effective each year as a high quality of clerks and graduate lawyers are selected each year. The buddy process also provides a wonderful opportunity for students or soon to be lawyers to connect with members from the firm to gain an inside understanding of the firm

The interview process and assessments relating to securing a clerkship position were relatively challenging but I always felt supported by HR. The interviewers were very professional and enjoyable to talk to.

Interview process was great, no further interviews for grad roles.

I didn't know that the offer was a combined clerkship/ grad until I attended the first clerkship event (as in after I had submitted my cover letter/ CV). But apart from that it was great.
I really liked having two interviews - but obviously I can't compare as I only ever did one clerkship.

Very thorough but well explained process. There was the initial psychometric testing, online interviews and then in-person interviews. Each stage was well-explained, and I felt comfortable throughout.

Written application, video interview and then in person interview. I liked that we had time to think about our responses in the video interview and the in person interview was more of a chat, and if they had structured questions, I don't think I noticed because it was interwoven so seamlessly. I really enjoyed my clerkship interview (it was the first I had) and instantly hit it off with HR and the Partner. HR mentioned they specifically remembered me and some of the things I said from my video interview and that made me really happy - that I wasn't just one of a million applicants

My interviews were years ago - my recollection of details of the process is not the strongest. There were psychometric tests, an online pre-recorded interview and an in person interview.
Graduate, Brisbane - 13 Oct 2023
2 interviews, information evening, coffees with grads, psych assessment
Graduate, Brisbane - 13 Oct 2023
Really engaging interviewers that made me feel comfortable and at ease and seemed to take a genuine interest in me on a human level, beyond my academic achievements or potential.
Graduate, Brisbane - 13 Oct 2023
First-round interview with Partner and HR (skills and experience interview)
Second-round interview with Partner and HR (cultural fit and questions)
This has since changed to:
Single interview with 2 Partners and HR
Less formal cocktail evening
