Here's a reminder of what the platform includes...

Our database of 150+ example successful applications now also includes Jake Schogger's detailed written feedback on 21 different types of application answers!

These include a CV, a cover letter, a work experience section, and a broad range of competency, strength and commercial awareness-based questions (these are all taken from real successful applications submitted by aspiring lawyers). Check out chapter 2 of our Example successful applications and cover letters course to view the feedback.

The course also includes 150+ successful applications, cover letters and CVs for a broad range of Magic and Silver Circle, US, mid-market and regional law firms.

Our platform also includes access to 100+ detailed profiles of Magic Circle, Silver Circle, US and regional firms (plus in-house teams), many of which have been updated over the past 3 weeks.

At the top of each profile, we include a summary of suggested USPs to include on application forms.

We also include links to relevant firm webpages under the different sections of each profile.

We now offer 120+ detailed interview and assessment centre insights for a broad range of Magic and Silver Circle, US, mid-market and regional law firms, plus in-house legal teams.

These give a strong insight into the types of competency, motivation and commercial interview questions that interviewers tend to ask, as well as the case studies, written exercises and group exercises that candidates face (including insights into any background materials provided and topics covered).

Whilst creating these, we asked hundreds of questions (and follow-up questions) to candidates to ensure each report was unambiguous, practical and as detailed as possible.

Still not convinced? Check out dozens of video and written testimonials from a small selection of the 10,000+ aspiring commercial lawyers we've supported! 

We offer 14 detailed case studies based on actual commercial law interviews, including questions, model answers and advice covering the role of law firms, pitching to clients, written exercises, contract and legislation analysis, disputes, M&A, scenario-based questions, brainteasers, and more. 

Why have 10,000+ aspiring lawyers chosen us? 

For starters, our courses are created by qualified lawyers, industry leaders, recruiters and coaches, ensuring they're accurate, practical, specific, and uniquely comprehensive.

It's our greatest USP. 

But there are so many other things that make us the best...

Our platform helps you to...

1. Try to figure out what might come up: read any recent assessment centre insights provided by previous interviewees at the firm in case these reflect what you'll be up against on the day (we have 80+ assessment centre insights). Don't 100% rely on these however, as firms can change their recruitment processes at any time!

2. Enhance your understanding of how assessment centres work: complete this course on preparing for assessment centres so that you'll have some idea of what to expect from (and how to approach) ice breakers, group exercises, case studies, e-tray exercises, general interviews, virtual interviews, and so on. We also have this course on negotiation, in case your assessment centre involves a negotiation exercise.

3. Research the firm in greater depth: to help you prepare for firm motivation questions, read the relevant firm profile (we have dozens!) and watch our video series on how to identify genuine firm USPs and link them back to yourself. You will likely be expected to go into greater depth regarding your motivation for wanting to work for the firm!

4. Confidently discuss your skills, strengths and motivations for wanting to be a commercial lawyer: perhaps start by completing our videos on how to discuss your career motivation, skills, strengths, and both professional and extracurricular experiences.

5. Make sure your commercial awareness is up to scratch: to help with this, we offer advice on how to build commercial awareness, 14 interview case studies, dozens of current affairs wrap ups, a legal tech masterclass, an M&A deep dive, and a partner-led course on the business of law firms.

6. Learn how to handle nerves and deliver presentations: if nerves concern you, complete our content on why we experience nerves and how to handle common symptoms of stress. This course will also help if you have to deliver a presentation as part of the assessment process.

Commercial Law Academy offers 23 in-depth courses, covering: insights into legal careers, firm profiles and interview insights, expert advice on writing applications and tackling psychometric tests, dozens of example (verified) successful cover letters and applications, resources to help you prepare for interviews and internships, example interview case studies, private equity and M&A deep dives, practical content to help you understand and confidently discuss commercial concepts and current affairs, plus tips on how to network, negotiate, deliver presentations and write professionally.
