Winter & Summer Clerkship Programs
Page Seager has been proud to offer a Clerkship Program to UTAS students for many years now. Traditionally, this program is offered during the university summer break. This year, Page Seager would like law students to have the option of completing a Clerkship during the winter break, and to that end, we will offer both a paid Winter and Summer Clerkship program.
What to expect
Our Clerkship program will give you a glimpse of practising law in a large commercial law firm. You will spend three weeks rotating through each area of expertise, gaining insight into the areas of law we practice at Page Seager.
During the Clerkship you can expect to do a variety of things, both in and out of the office. Our program is structured so Clerks can learn through a combination of hands-on experience, information sessions, training and observation. It is anticipated that Clerks will be exposed to client meetings, observe court proceedings, conduct legal research, draft correspondence and court documents, develop technical skills, use technology and research resources and have access to a range of lawyers from junior through to Principals.
Mentorship and support
Each Clerk is paired with a buddy who will support and guide you through the program. Each practice area has a contact person who is responsible for sourcing work for you and each piece of work will include feedback.
Who are we looking for
We are looking for law students in their penultimate or final year who are intelligent, motivated, energetic people interested in pursuing a legal career in Tasmania. While your academic achievements are important to us, we also value different life experiences and interests.
What comes after a clerkship
Page Seager has a Graduate Program and we often select our Graduates from the Clerkship pool.
What are the benefits of working at Page Seager
Page Seager offers career progression opportunities, genuinely flexible and alternative work arrangements, 13 weeks paid parental leave, realistic expectations in relation to workloads and financial performance, access to a performance bonus scheme, a merit-based promotions policy and has a great workplace culture which, coupled with top quality work and clients, makes us a sought-after firm.
