Employability Skills for Law Students is designed to help you:
* identify the academic, practical and transferable skills that can be developed whilst studying for a law degree;

* identify any gaps in your skills portfolio;
* maximise opportunities to develop new skills through participation in a range of activities;
* effectively demonstrate your skills to potential employers;
* improve your employability prospects on graduation from university.
Whether you are in your first year or your last, this book will ensure you make the most of your time at university, developing skills inside and outside the lecture theatre, so that you are in the best possible position to pursue your chosen career on graduation - as a solicitor, barrister, or a completely different profession.
An interactive Online Resource Centre provides a range practical activities designed to give you opportunities to practise and receive feedback upon the skills you are developing.
