Requirements for applicants

To be considered for our pupillage programme, you must be enrolled as a student at the Kenya School of Law (“KSL”) for the Advocates Training Program.

Pupillage applications should be addressed to the Pupillage Committee and must comprise your Curriculum Vitae and a Cover Letter.

Your CV should have a personal touch and must state your:

• Citizenship status;
• Educational qualifications giving grades attained (provide copies of transcripts);
• Work experience, if any;
• Other relevant experience (university positions, voluntary work, etc.)
• Referees (from work or university only, must be or have been your direct supervisor)

Interviews

Following a preliminary assessment of the applicants’ cover letters and curricula vitae, the applicants who are identified to move on to the second stage of our process will be required to undertake a timed, written assessment aimed at gauging their suitability for the Pupillage programme.

Subsequently, the firm shall conduct round(s) of face-to-face interviews with short-listed applicants.

Please note that due to the volume of applications that the firm receives and considers, only short-listed applicants will be contacted as they progress through the interview process.
