What else do we consider?

At CV and interview stage we look for a variety of skills, knowledge and behaviours. We also consider individual qualities each candidate might bring to the role, taking account of their academic studies, research area, and any skills and experience outside of academia. Having a diverse workforce enables us to work effectively across our wide and varied client base, and this brings a richness of ideas and backgrounds to the firm. 

It is important to state that we do not expect candidates to have an in-depth knowledge of patents or trade marks, although researching the profession is highly recommended.
