5SAH hosted our first Pupillage Open Evening via zoom on 24 November 2020. Hosted by a team of barristers at 5SAH who have been through Pupillage recently, who are on the Pupillage Committee, and everyone in between.
Who should watch this video?

Topics covered
- Why 5SAH? Our Pupillage award, the work we do and why we have such a strong track record of recruiting our pupils as tenants.
- The application process and what to expect in our first and final interview. Pitfalls to avoid.
- The pupillage process: which in the main will be a criminal pupillage but there will be opportunities to explore extradition, family, and POCA work.
