We are looking for two commercial writers!

[Jaysen]

Hi All,

We are looking for two commercial writers to join our forum team.

Why become a commercial writer?

• Your posts will be circulated to a readership of 4,000+ students, graduates and professionals.
• You will join a friendly team and be given the autonomy to drive the growth of TCLA's forum.
• You will be designated a commercial writer and have access to our private team forum for internal discussions
• You will develop your own commercial awareness.
• You will be able to showcase your role in your applications to law firms.

What will your responsibilities be?

• You will stay up to date with weekly business & legal topics.
• You will work together to post a weekly "commercial awareness" update in our forum.
• You will teach aspiring lawyers about topical commercial issues to prepare them for interviews.
• See Coralin's posts for an idea of we are looking for.

Who are we looking for?

There are two things we are looking for:

1. Written ability - you need to be able to explain topical issues in a clear and concise manner.
2. Commercial knowledge - you need to have a competent understanding of commercial issues.
3. Commitment - we are looking for students who are enthusiastic about the role and can commit a minimum of 4-5 hours a week (research + write-up).

You can apply here: https://goo.gl/forms/u194OVK0S6x5S6j13. The deadline is 4th November 2018.

We look forward to meeting our new team!
