Dive In with Allens
As a Dive-In participant, you'll have the opportunity to meet our partners and lawyers, gain insight into who we are and the work we do, hear practical tips for preparing for work in the early stages of your career, learn about our clerkships and life as a graduate at Allens, and so much more!
Upon successful completion of our Dive In program, you'll join our Dive In alumni community, and will be invited back to the firm in your penultimate year ahead of applying for clerkships. As a Dive-In alumnus, you'll receive specific guidance on navigating your way through the recruitment process and tips and tricks to set you up for success. You'll also have the opportunity to reconnect with the people you met during the Dive-In program and continue to build your network.

Day one and three are currently planned to be held face-to-face at our office and day two will be facilitated online via Microsoft Teams.
