[QUOTE="City Lawyer wannabe, post: 75923, member: 12156"] Thank you for your replies guys, I am very appreciative of them. Magic Circle, I am fond of their practice areas and obviously prestige plays a part, but in no way am I opposed to other law firms. The inclusion of 'Magic Circle' was used purely to differentiate from other law firms so that users would not misconstrue the question as 'TC at 25'. I am curious perhaps [USER=2672]@Jessica Booker[/USER] can help... From a law firm's perspective what is the appeal of recruiting somebody who has done a PhD? I have noticed that a lot of these PhDs are STEM which makes sense, an expert may be advantageous to the firm for certain practice areas (IP for example). From what I can see, there is no set criteria for a firm, it appears to be the candidate who is most likely to add value to the firm and can demonstrate in the application process as such (among other essential and given qualities). 25 is still young, I think that I should give it my best shot and apply, I guess its the only way I shall ever truly know.
