Support for Judicial Appointment Applicants
News item added 16th July 2008

The Judicial Appointments Commission is currently inviting applications for the appointment of Recorders and Deputy District Judges (Magistrates' Court). With the closing dates of these competitions fast approaching, now is the time to maximise your chances of success through a one-to-one session with one of our specialist consultants. She will work with you to ensure you get your written application right first time, helping you think through the application form and draw out your work and personal experiences that best demonstrate your qualities and abilities.

Developed in association with the Bar Council and the Law Society, our training is designed to help barristers and solicitors prepare effectively for the judicial appointment process (both application form and interview).

Here’s what previous competition applicants have said about our service:

I am delighted to say that with your tremendously valuable support, my application was successful.

Coming down to JSB Training and Development and having the benefit of your guidance was the wisest decision that I have ever made.

I do think you provide an excellent service to people like me who hadn’t filled in an application or had an interview for 15 years.

Details of the competitions can be viewed here.
