Graduates

Start your legal career at IDP

Each year, IDP recruits a new graduate cohort to commence rotations in February. Recruitment generally opens in late October or early November, with our selection process completed and offers made before the Christmas shutdown.

Our graduates rotate through our key practice areas, gaining hands-on experience while working closely with partners, senior lawyers and experienced practitioners. We provide structured learning and development, mentoring and plenty of opportunity to build practical skills from the outset.

We look for people who are curious, engaged and genuinely interested in our work. Academic results are only part of the picture — we value life experience, previous work, initiative and people who want to contribute to a team.

Keep an eye on our LinkedIn page from late October for details of our next Graduate Program and other early-career opportunities.

We also occasionally recruit law students to our Legal Operations team. These roles suit students with a genuine interest in statutory compensation and personal injury law who are looking to make a meaningful and consistent commitment alongside their studies, with some flexibility around their working days.
