The Turks graduate rotation program is a core recruitment initiative that we have delivered in our Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane offices for over 10 years.
The program operates within a highly supportive environment that allows graduate and junior lawyers to relish the opportunity to be involved in cutting-edge legal work, learning from experts at the top of their game and gaining direct exposure to our clients. Each graduate is mentored by a partner in the respective practice group as well as being assigned a buddy from a different practice area.
The program runs for 12 months and rotations occur every four to six months through two or three different practice groups depending on your location. The rotation program ensures graduates experience a wide variety of legal work and develop a comprehensive skill set, learning from a variety of experienced lawyers and partners. In addition to fostering professional development, we also focus on developing emotional intelligence as we consider this to be just as important as technical ability.
The graduate rotation program is open to pre-admitted and admitted candidates. It’s important that graduates have an open, friendly and down to earth attitude, which will continue to be nurtured throughout the program.
At the conclusion of the program, graduates will be able to confidently identify the practice area that best suits their talents and career goals, where a permanent position may be offered.
We recruit all year round as opportunities become available! We always have a rotating graduate in each practice group in Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane, therefore as graduates are offered permanent positions within our team, we will recruit for another rotating grad. Keep an eye on our current opportunities page for available positions.
