Personally I would suggest doing open days to gain an insight into a particular firm (rather than more broadly demonstrating interest in a career in law. How many firms would you like to gain an insight into? Which are you currently drawn to? I didn't put any of my open days on my CV. Instead I mentioned them, where appropriate, in my answers to application questions/in my cover letter. I was applying in my 3rd and 4th year, so had a fair amount of work experience, which I felt was more substantial. For example, for a first year law student with little other substantive work experience, I would have thought open days would be appropriate for a CV. Jess may have entirely different thoughts on this though!With regards to your clashing open days, I wouldn't worry this happens to the best of us! Emailing the firm that you can no longer attend would be fine. I would not worry about being blacklisted for this sort of thing. Just make sure that you are grateful for being offered the opportunity and that you would like to interact with the firm again in the future if it were possible. One idea is to ask whether the firm is holding an open day on a different date that you could be transferred to. Hope that helps 🚀</blockquote>
