Diversity & Inclusion
Removing Barriers So That Talent Can Shine
A key focus for Addleshaw Goddard is diversifying our trainee talent. To do this we have partnered with an external organisation to introduce contextual recruitment and accountability into our graduate hiring process.
More Than A Grade
Contextual recruitment looks at the context of academic achievement, and identifies students who have surpassed expectations or performed excellently in conditions of adversity.
We have also removed our minimum A-level requirement to allow a more diverse pool of candidates to apply for training contracts at Addleshaw Goddard.
Goodbye To Bias
Our external recruitment partner helps us to screen your application without personal information to ensure we do not allow bias of any kind to affect the process.
We are also increasing the training for everyone involved in the recruitment process to ensure that we select people based on their ability, potential and nothing else.
Pleased To Meet You
We are attending law fairs and events (mostly virtually) so that we can meet you and tell you all about AG. This year, we will also be attending fairs and events that are focussed on diversity and inclusion to ensure we recruit from a more diverse pool of candidates.
