Chambers takes a long-term view towards pupillage so as to guarantee our quality of service and enhance our reputation through the careful selection of future tenants. Our recruitment process reflects the high standards necessary to become a member of Chambers. We have a three-stage assessment process - written application, initial interview and finally a day-long assessment in Chambers.
Our pupils can expect a comprehensive range of work, excellent and intensive training, and a good level of funding. Each pupil is given a dedicated pupil supervisor who will provide the correct balance between tutoring and assessment.
During the second six months of pupillage, our pupils will have the opportunity to take on work in their own right, supported by the breadth and depth of knowledge from College Chambers and providing a solid foundation for development of practice beyond pupillage and into tenancy.
Applications for pupillage commencing 2012 are now closed. Any future vacancies will be advertised on pupillage portal, and on our website. Please check for details.

Mini-pupillage is a good way to spend time with barristers and watch them at work. It can help potential barristers to decide whether a career at the bar is for them and whether to apply for pupillage at a particular chambers.
College Chambers offers week-long mini-pupillages to suitable applicants who have embarked upon or completed their undergraduate studies. Mini-pupillage here is not assessed and is not a pre-requisite for a pupillage application.
Mini-pupils here can expect to see family and criminal work and perhaps other areas of law, and meet many Members of Chambers.
If you are interested, please apply with a covering letter and CV (which should include examination results for A-levels and beyond) to Sarah Henstock-Turner at College Chambers, 19 Carlton Crescent, Southampton, SO15 2ET or by email to minipupillage@college-chambers.co.uk.
