Allen & Overy Training Contract Application Process

Applying to Allen & Overy

Applicants are invited to submit their application via the Allen & Overy website.

Application Tips

  • Think about what you may have learned and observed from your work experience and use this in your application. For example, you may have improved a process or made a useful suggestion for a previous employer. This would make a great example to use, as it shows you are assertive, intelligent and forthcoming in the workplace.
  • Candidates need to show that they are absolutely committed to a career in law and that a career with Allen & Overy would be one of their top (if not very top) choice.
  • Taking on responsibility, for example managing a budget, team or project whilst at University, is a great example to use when answering a question about your skills on an application form or in interview.
