What should my application letter cover?
Keep your letter short - no more than a page - and simple. Your application letter should tell us:

• The exact position for which you are applying.
  
• Your point of view on this position and your future carrier.
  
• Details of your tertiary education, including degree(s) and completion (or intended) dates.
  
• If you are admitted to practice, the date of admission and the jurisdiction.

Tips

• Check the name and title of the person you are sending your application to.
  
• You may wish to highlight certain parts of your application. This may be useful, for example, if you failed a subject for valid personal reasons (eg illness/death in the family) or if you deferred study for a period of time.
  
• Don't forget to sign the letter if you are mailing it.

What should my CV cover?
Your CV must be accompanied by a copy of your university statement of academic results, where applicable, and should include the following:

• Your full name, address, and contact details (home/work/mobile phone numbers and email address if available).
  
• Tertiary education - degree(s) held/or undertaken and tertiary institution details.
  
• Offices held at school and university and in the community.
  
• Legal and other work experience (including voluntary work).
  
• Employment history in reasonable detail (including the approximate number of hours worked per week during university).
  
• Any language abilities.

CV tips

• Minimise the number of attachments to your CV. Do not attach past essays or pieces of research.
  
• Keep the format simple. Use bullet points and headings. Don't spend money on glossy covers or binding.
  
• Finally, check your application meticulously before you send it. Spelling and grammatical errors create a poor first impression.
