University of Aberdeen Law Fair Expands to Welcome New Law Firms

Building on last year's success, which saw 600 students attend, the University of Aberdeen's long running Law Fair, taking place on Tuesday 3rd October, is set to welcome an increased number of local and national Law Firms. This event is a key part of the undergraduate and postgraduate law student calendar and is an excellent networking opportunity.

Join us on Tuesday 3rd October 2023, 11am-3pm in the Butchart Centre.

The University of Aberdeen Law Fair is designed to give students an opportunity to find out more about the types of work done by Law firms and organisations, their internships, placements and traineeships. Open to both Law students and students from other disciplines interested in a career as a lawyer, the fair provides an opportunity to speak with recruitment staff and current trainees from both local and national firms keen to recruit from the University of Aberdeen. Students of all year groups are welcome.

Unsure how to make the most of the fair?

The Careers and Employability Service are running two pre-fair seminars so you can find out how to get the best out of attending. Please sign up on Target Connect to find out how to research the companies and what questions are good questions to ask!
