The London Report

July 27, 2011 by Damian 

I have been meaning to write a post about the London market for quite some time now. Over the last few months, we have seen a noticeable increase in the amount of roles coming on and our candidates are now securing more and more interviews so things are definitely looking up but it is still a pretty tough market to break into.

As such, I thought that it would be timely to provide an overview of what is happening over there but lo and behold when I opened my weekly email from Lawyers Weekly (Oz equivalent to NZ Lawyer) this morning, I found that someone had saved me the trouble.

Here is a link to a very comprehensive overview of the London market. It is obviously written from an Australian perspective so just substitute New Zealander for Australian and you will get the same message.

One thing to add which my colleague in London alerted me to last night is that more and more firms are happy to sponsor candidates now so even if you don’t have an EU passport or an ancestry visa, if your background is strong enough, firms will be keen and able to hire you.

If after reading this, you are interested in exploring your options in the London market, please get in touch.

Happy reading!
