Careers

Harwood Andrews Lawyers’ seasonal clerkship program provides you with the opportunity to taste life at Harwood Andrews Lawyers and experience the inner workings at our firm.

You will get a close-up insight into the firm’s culture, its talent and its dedication to its clients. You will also see how our lawyers deliver outcomes to our extensive client base of high-net-worth individuals, family owned businesses and the organisations that service them.

The objective of a seasonal clerkship with Harwood Andrews Lawyers is to offer a formal and well rounded learning opportunity. The three week program provides you with a snapshot of the legal profession and gives you an exciting opportunity to experience what it’s like to work in a law firm.

At the commencement of your seasonal clerkship you will be introduced to your buddy, who will be one of the firm’s trainee's or a junior lawyer. Your buddy will be responsible for giving you the support needed to ensure that your clerkship is rewarding, as well as a positive learning experience.
