Recruitment Timetable for Vacation Work & Training Contracts / Pupillages in Hong Kong
Recruitment practices (for Vacation Programmes/Mini-pupillages and Training Contracts/Pupillages) vary from employer to employer. Generally applications should be made earlier rather than later: for vacation work, several months in advance; for Pupillage, about 1 to 2 years beforehand. Training Contracts with large law firms should be sought over 2 years in advance of your desired start date, while the Department of Justice normally conducts its legal trainee recruitment shortly after the commencement of the PCLL year. This timetable is provided by way of guidance only. No liability is accepted for reliance on the information provided below. Most law firms have one intake of Trainee Solicitors each year (in Aug/Sep) and will interview all their vacation students (and others) for Training Contracts. Therefore when to apply for a vacation placement depends on when you will join as a Trainee Solicitor.
SOLICITORS FIRMS BARRISTERS CHAMBERS
* Please visit the websites of: The Law Society of Hong Kong, the PCLL Conversion Examination, City University of Hong Kong, The University of Hong Kong and The Chinese University of Hong Kong to ensure you can satisfy the entry requirements for the PCLL .
