According to the firm, participants will engage in a range of activities, including career coaching sessions, CV writing workshops, mock interviews, skills assessments, insightful panel discussions with industry experts, vision boarding, scholarship opportunities and networking opportunities.

Speaking during the recent E-Lawyer Campus Tour, Founder of E-Lawyer Nigeria, Mina Obeten, said: “The goal is to help students make informed career decisions and provide them with the necessary tools to excel in their chosen paths.

We are opening this opportunity not just to law students, but also to students from other faculties who wish to learn basic employability skills. Additionally, we aim to support young legal professionals in their career growth.

E-Lawyer is proud to offer international scholarship opportunities as part of our commitment to developing global lawyers for the continent. We will also facilitate internship placements with top-tier firms partnering with us — reinforcing our dedication to the student community.”
