Join us at HSF Kramer in-person University of Aberdeen ‘Inside the Headlines’ event, where they will walk you through what went on behind the scenes of one of their headline-grabbing Corporate cases. They will tell you all about the roles and responsibilities of the trainees working on the case and you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions to the lawyers who worked on the case.

After the event, you’ll hear from their current and future trainees and early careers team who will share information and top tips about their application process. You’ll also have the chance to network with the lawyers and trainees, and ask any burning questions you might have about the case, applications or Life@HSF Kramer.

Placement Schemes
The application window for placement schemes is currently open. They are recruiting for 2027 placement schemes/2029 training contract. While you are there, you will get to know the everyday life of an Addleshaw Goddard trainee. You will be allocated a department to sit in and will be supervised by an experienced solicitor. A trainee buddy will also be on hand to help throughout your placement. They offer training contracts to successful placement scheme attendees, and do not undertake any direct training contract recruitment, so we’d encourage you to apply.

Insight Day
They are running a mix of in person and virtual insight days for candidates who are not yet eligible to apply for a placement scheme. The insight days will be held in March and will give candidates a good overview of life in a global law firm, what being a trainee involves as well as giving guidance on the application process to help them prepare for making applications the following year.
