Applying for a legal role? Your CV is often the first thing a recruiter sees — and it’s under close scrutiny. Legal recruiters know exactly what catches an employer’s eye (and what doesn’t). Here’s how working with a specialist recruiter can help you polish your CV and present yourself at your best:
Typos, formatting issues, or misused legal terms? Recruiters catch these instantly — and help you fix them. In law, attention to detail is everything.
They’ll help you shape your career journey, so it reads logically and confidently, even if there are gaps or changes along the way.
Legal recruiters know what firms are looking for. They’ll make sure your CV highlights the most relevant practice areas for the role you want.
From your degree to specialist training, recruiters help you present your academic background clearly and professionally.
They’ll check that your CV and LinkedIn profile tell the same story — consistency builds trust.
Worked at a well-known firm or had a standout secondment? Recruiters know how to make these experiences stand out.
They’ll help you show that you understand the business side of law — not just the technical work.
From layout to tone, recruiters make sure your CV looks sharp and reads well. First impressions really do count.
Leadership, teamwork, communication — these matter. Recruiters also know how to highlight the value of part-time work, pro bono projects, and volunteering. Beyond practical skills, these roles often show integrity, initiative, and a willingness to contribute — powerful signals of character that employers notice and respect.
They’ll guide you to tailor your CV, so it reflects real motivation for the role or firm — not just a blanket application.
