To apply for a position in the Middle East, you can search and apply for roles in the region, or register for alerts for future vacancies. All current opportunities are advertised on our website. We would encourage you to carefully read the particulars of the relevant job description before applying so as to avoid disappointment.
At Clifford Chance, the roles for which you can apply are divided into three general types – law graduates and students, experienced lawyers, and other professionals.
If there are no currently advertised roles that interest you, you can register to receive an automatic job alert as soon as details of the job you are seeking are published on our website.
Training Contract 2026/27
Applications for our 2026/27 Training Contract will open on 4 September 2023 and close on 23 November 2023 at 11:59pm. Please keep in mind that we do not hire on a rolling basis and, we won't review applications until after the deadline has passed. We therefore encourage you to engage with our Global Virtual Internships and Virtual Events Hub before submitting your application. Details of all of these are available on our website.
Shortly after submitting your application, you will receive an email from us asking you to complete an online Watson Glaser critical reasoning assessment. This takes approximately 30 minutes and should be completed within 5 days of receiving our email with instructions. Successful candidates will then be invited to complete a video interview.
The assessment days for Training Contracts will take place w/c 15 January 2024.
