    Ep. 65 - Breaking In To The Wide World of Law: with Ben Triggs of Bright Network

    The world of law is expansive. From criminal to corporate, areas of practice heavily influence and differentiate the types of work that lawyers do and as such the skillsets they need to succeed. As a result, graduate recruitment processes for a career in law can vary greatly, even within their own subset of the legal profession. Despite this, there are a number of common (and critical!) skills, tips and pointers to bear in mind throughout it all. In this episode, Ben Triggs, from graduate careers site and event provider Bright Network, shares his key tips for getting for your first feet forward in law. --- Get access to a host of free resources, guidance, events and more (including virtual internships and networking with leading law firms) with Bright Network here: https://tinyurl.com/brightnetworklaw --- Boost your commercial awareness, learn how lawyers solve problems, and get an insight into life at Bakers with the Trainee Test podcast series: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1430497 --- Keep up to date with everything I'm up to - including my latest resources, events and episodes - by signing up to my newsletter here: https://tinyurl.com/hc-signup --- Music provided by Audio Library: Jungle Juice - Wataboi and Cali - Wataboi.
