How to make your training contract applications stand out Think about what makes you, uniquely you. Be ruthless -- edit or delete any generic statements. Mention your previous interactions with the firm, no matter how small. Deploy all your hard work on building commercial awareness.
Under the Chartered Accountants Ireland training framework, graduates are required to complete a 3.5-year training contract (or equivalent period under the Flexible Route), accredited post-graduate entrants a 3-year training contract/period, and school leavers (Accounting Technicians) to complete a 4-year period.
Your training will enable you to understand the practical implications of the law and develop the skills you'll need as a solicitor. The period of recognised training is normally two years full time, but it can be reduced if you have relevant previous legal experience.
