Solicitor Apprentice Insight Day
About the event
Date: 19 November 2024
Time: 9:30am to 3:30pm
Location: Travers Smith, 10 Snow Hill, London, EC1A 2AL
Making a decision on where to train as a solicitor can be a challenging one, particularly if you are considering several different options. To help candidates gain a more in-depth insight into a solicitor apprenticeship with Travers Smith, we are hosting an insight event in our offices.
This insight day is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of our apprenticeship scheme and the role of a commercial solicitor in today's complex commercial environment.
Throughout the day you will participate in a number of interactive workshops including:
- An introduction to Travers Smith
- The role of a Solicitor
- Fee-earner panel
- Commercial and business skills workshop
- Application workshop
Eligibility
To be eligible for this event, you must have completed or be on track to complete your A Levels (or equivalent qualifications) by September 2025.
We require candidates to have a minimum of 7 GCSEs at grade 6 or above, and on track to receive AAB at A Level or equivalent (e.g. BTECs, International Baccalaureate). If you have mitigating circumstances, we may take these into account when shortlisting candidates.
This event is taking place in-person in our London offices, and therefore we can only accept applications for those able to attend in-person on this day. We will provide reimbursement of reasonable travel expenses incurred.
Application Process
Many of our in-person events have a high level of interest for a limited number of spaces, so we are therefore asking to candidates to complete a short application form to explain why they wish to participate in this event, as well as what they would gain from attending.
We are also running a series of shorter virtual events, which have a high capacity. We would therefore encourage you to check out these events as well. You can find these on our events platform using the link below.

Using AI in applications
The firm embraces responsible use of technology, including AI, across our work. Therefore, we ask that if you wish to use GenAI to support your application, you do so responsibly. Please remember that GenAI tools only have access to certain information and further research and verification on the points identified is encouraged. We also ask that you maintain a personal touch in your application, rather than using generic responses that are usually generated using GenAI tools. Throughout the application your answers should reflect your own work, abilities and experiences.
If you have any further questions about the programme or the application process, please visit our website where you can find FAQs and information on where you can meet us both virtually and in-person.
