Jack Cane, who studied on our Law 3 year LLB degree from 2016-2019, has written our latest Warwick Law Careers Blog, ‘How not to be a lawyer - a career in lawtech.’ Jack, who now works as a LawtechUK Executive, writes about an alternative career in law and his experience of navigating the job market during the pandemic.

Sophia Hesling, who studied on our Law 3 year LLB degree and graduated this summer, has written an article for Legal Cheek sharing her top tips to application success. The article ‘What I wish I knew before applying for training contracts’ was published on 1 September 2022. Sophia is an events coordinator for Legal Cheek and a future trainee at Eversheds Sutherland.   

Former Warwick LLB and LLM student Seyi Afolabi, shares her experience with future graduates by taking them along for the day in her role as Executive Officer at the Houses of Parliament. In her latest YouTube video, she shares words of wisdom on making her way through academia and her career.

Staff, LLM students and Warwick alumni came together last month to discuss career opportunities and the realities of life after graduation. The Alumni/LLM Employability and Networking reception took place down at our Warwick in London offices near Kings Cross, and offered current students the opportunity to learn from the experiences of our law alumni and seek advice about their futures.

Following the announcement from The Solicitors’ Regulation Authority about a new route to qualifying as a solicitor, the Solicitors Qualifying Exam (SQE), we want to reassure all current Warwick Law students that they will continue to have the option to seek qualification as a Solicitor in the way currently expected (by the LPC route following graduation with a qualifying degree).

All students have been emailed with relevant guidance and as more information about the SQE becomes available we will provide further clarity.
