Solicitors who would like to discuss any career matter with an independent career adviser in absolute confidence should contact the Career Support service at Law Society of Ireland.
All solicitors who are members of the Law Society are welcome to avail of a career consultation anytime – to discuss any matter including stress. bullying, career direction, job seeking, etc.
Currently, most consultations are taking place on Zoom. Using Zoom means that solicitors throughout Ireland and abroad have the same access to this service regardless of where you are located. Some solicitors prefer telephone consultations and that is not a problem.
All consultations are with a career adviser who has extensive experience of counselling solicitors in career matters. Absolute privacy and discretion is guaranteed. In common with other Career Support services, there is no charge to solicitors for this support.
Other one-to-one personalised supports available to solicitors from the Law Society’s Career Support service include a CV review and feedback service, help with job seeking and assistance in preparing for interviews.
To arrange a career consultation or any other Career Support service, please contact Shane Farrell at the Law Society. Shane’s email is s.farrell@lawsociety.ie and his telephone is 01 672 4937.
