The Bar Council is launching a Pupillage Fair, where students can find out about careers at the Bar, take part in workshops and meet representatives from chambers and course providers. Its first Pupillage Fair will take place on 21 November at Lincoln’s Inn, and will run alongside the Chancery Bar Association’s careers fair. All chambers are invited, regardless of specialism. Philip Roberston, the Bar’s director of policy, says: “The fair is an excellent platform for students to meet chambers and course providers face to face, as well as a chance for chambers to widen their net in the search for potential talent.”
