Choosing the right law firm is a big decision for every graduating law student because the firm you serve your CA/PVT in sets the stage for the rest of your career.

Securing a place on the Werksmans CA/PVT Programme opens up a realm of legal knowledge. We see our CA’s of today as the leaders of our firm tomorrow.

The CA/PVT Programme will give you the opportunity to work with high-calibre clients (including many of South Africa’s leading multinationals, listed companies and financial institutions), alongside some of the best legal minds in the country.

At Werksmans, there is limited space on our vacation and CA/PVT programmes. We therefore encourage students to apply as early as possible. We consider students from their 2nd year of LLB studies, or 3rd / final year for those completing an undergraduate degree prior to pursuing a LLB.

Who we look for:

• We look for attorneys who have a passion for life, learning, expertise and intellect.
• We accept applications from all law students i.e. BA Law, BCom Law and LLB degrees.
• Students can apply to us from their second year of LLB studies or their 3rd/final year for those pursuing an undergraduate degree.
• We seek students who are academically excellent and who also have diverse interests.
