A vacation clerkship is the perfect way to learn about working at Clifford Chance and meet our people.
We recruit students that we believe have the potential and ambition to join us once their degrees are completed. Our 2024/25 Summer Clerks will automatically be considered for our 2026 Graduate Program (commencing March 2026).
The clerkship program allows you to follow the life of a lawyer at Clifford Chance closely - you will sit in two different teams, working with our lawyers on real, live client projects. You will be treated as a part of our team and given opportunities to demonstrate your ability.
To ensure you get the most from your program we will assign you a mentor - an experienced lawyer who will help you settle in and answer any questions you have.
Across the eight-week program we will also host sessions from professionals across the firm to give you a real insight into how our firm works. You will be given the opportunity to interact with team members from around the global network and get to see what life is really like for a Clifford Chance lawyer.
