Graduate recruitment work covers the processes by which employers hire recent graduates into training schemes, graduate programmes or entry‑level roles, including internships and placements. A solicitor in this area drafts and reviews offer letters and graduate contracts, early engagement letters, and the terms of graduate schemes, as well as policies on internships and assessment centres. They also handle pre‑employment checks, right to work, DBS/background checks, and compliance with equality and data protection rules, while advising on potential disputes that could arise in later employment steps.
Where a solicitor protects your position
The key stakes involve avoiding unlawful discrimination, data‑protection breaches, and breaches of post‑employment restrictions. A solicitor provides guidance on compliant recruitment practices, negotiates terms of offers and contracts, and helps protect the client’s position in any potential dispute through proper documentation, safeguarding, and clear communication with the candidate and relevant authorities.
