BACFI Student Evening
21st October 2021
BACFI’s annual Student Evening took place online on 21st October. Supported by City Law School, students from across the country were invited to attend in order to find out a bit more about the Employed Bar and the options available. Chaired by Dan Byrne of AA Thornton, the panel of Lady Rose (Supreme Court), Sonia Hayes (Assistant Coroner), Sharon Blackman (Citi) and Thomas Keane (pupil at No5) explained the routes that their careers had taken and outlined the differences between the Employed and self-employed Bar. The themes of the evening were not being disappointed when the path you wish to follow is not working out but taking opportunities where you can as you never know where they may lead, building up a network of contacts as this is helpful throughout your career, gaining experience wherever possible and that being a barrister is not just about being in court but can encompass a whole spectrum of possibilities.
