OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Converting to a legal career after a PhD
The legal sector is large and varied and spans numerous roles in both domestic and international jurisdictions.
In this session we will focus on 2 of the main pathways for a legal career within the UK market which is to become qualified and work as either a barrister or a solicitor.
The market in the UK is unique in that it is possible to “convert” to law (a legal career) even if you have not yet studied any law or if your career to date has been in something different. In fact, law firms and chambers welcome applicants from a diverse range of academic subject backgrounds as well as career changers.
Come along to the session to find out about these roles, what employers value in their applicants and how to go about getting started if you are interested in these options.
