All pupillage providers must advertise all pupillage vacancies on the Pupillages website, it is up to chambers to decide whether or not to use the Pupillage Portal for the recruitment process.

Pupillage Portal

The Pupillage Portal allows applicants to search and apply for pupillage using an on-line form, and for pupillage providers to communicate with applicants using email/on-line messages. This has the advantage of allowing direct communication between applicants and chambers in a controlled and fair manner. The aim is to create a level playing field for all applicants, as the same application form is completed by all applicants and distributed in the same way to the providers.

A particular advantage of the Pupillage Portal system is that applicants can search for pupillage on the website, using a number of search criteria (eg location, areas of specialisation).   The Pupillage and Awards Handbook is published by GTI, and will remain the companion to the pupillage website. This has the advantage of allowing applicants to browse the pupillage vacancies off-line.

There is no charge to applicants using the system.  Pupillages are advertised one year in advance, i.e. in 2010 season, candidates will be applying for pupillages commencing in 2011.

The system is currently closed.
