LawCareers.Net’s user survey found that 89% rate LCN ‘useful’ or ‘very useful’, with respondents praising “how accessible it is” and “how much useful information there is, especially for free”.

Each year LawCareers.Net conducts a user survey to gather feedback on the tools available to those seeking a career in law and to assess the mood of those entering the profession.

Respondents reported that the training contract directory, Practice Area Profiles and Meet the Lawyer profiles were the most useful features. Commercial awareness content, such as LawCareers.Net’s Commercial Questions, were also rated highly, with one participant stating that LawCareers.Net helps “increase […] commercial awareness with access to a wide range of interesting information”.

The survey found that students use LawCareers.Net for a range of purposes. The top-rated reasons were:

• to find information about law firms/barrister chambers and their recruitment processes;
• to search for law firms/barrister chambers to apply to; and
• for updates and insights into what's going on in the legal profession.

Events and hub pages were other features respondents also praised, as well as the overall range and variety of content. One user explained that LawCareers.Net is “the perfect amalgamation of content, information and detail-oriented work”.
