Welcome to the online pupillage listings

Welcome to the online pupillage listings. You will find all the Pupillage Providers' entries from the latest edition of the Pupillages Handbook, plus ad hoc vacancies which have arisen since the Handbook was printed. This site contains listings of all pupillages available in the UK. Ad hoc vacancies and changes to the originally advertised pupillages are highlighted on the NewsFlash page of this site. You will find details of Providers subscribing to OLPAS and those outside OLPAS. Please remember that you may not apply to a Pupillage Provider for a pupillage other than through the provider's recruitment procedure or in response to an advertisement for an ad hoc vacancy. Providers are able to update their listing entries so it is worth checking entries from Providers you are interested in from time to time in case new information is published.

You are able to browse through the online pupillage listings by using a simple A-Z listing menu or by using simple search tools. All Provider entries are easy to follow, the specialisation codes of the Provider are the same as for paper copy of the Pupillages Handbook.

Use the online listings to research the Providers and draw up your shortlist of those you want to apply to. Where the Provider has a website there will be a link, visit their site for further information. More information on Providers can be obtained from the latest edition of TARGETjobs Law obtainable from your university careers service or direct from targetjobs.co.uk/law.
