Looking for pupillage? Read some of the personal achievements, tips and advice from our barristers past and present. Securing pupillage.
My personal achievements: getting a first, smashing all of my BPTC exams, being called to the Bar and most importantly my pupillage. Oh and making my mum cry with happiness when I put on my wig and gown for the first time at Call Night.
Rosie Godfrey-Lockwood, BPTC Graduate, Pupilliage commences 2015
For me perhaps the most valuable aspect of studying at BPP University Law School was the support offered by the careers department. When I was applying for pupillage the careers staff checked through and offered detailed advice on each of my paper applications and provided one-to-one mock interview sessions. I really believe that it was this invaluable tailored and intense support which helped me to get pupillage during the first round of applications.

After writing your answers to the questions asked on the application form, read them out to a friend. Do they sound too earnest, dull, unrealistic, naive? Or do they sound well researched, practical, interesting and make the reader want to meet you in person? Someone has to read your form. Make them want to meet you!
