We appreciate good academic records as they are a sign of high motivation and eagerness to learn. Good grades are a great asset, however we evaluate each candidate as a whole and take multiple skills into consideration when making the final decisions.​

What else do you value in a employee?
We value preciseness, resilience, solid analytical skills, and an ability to communicate clearly. Most important is your motivation and courage to develop as a professional and willingness to meet new challenges as a part of our team.

Recruitment & Employment

 
We have four different trainee programmes which are intended for law students and we recruit about 60 students on annual basis.

The Associate Trainee programme is the most important recruitment channel to permanent positions. Every year we welcome over 20 legal professionals to Krogerus.

We already have 200 of us working at Krogerus, and the number is constantly growing up! Will you be our new colleague and one of us?

Our recruitment process for each trainee programme position involves one interview for selected candidates. Our goal is to make decisions shortly after the interview. If wanted, we also offer you feedback on your performance and application documents.

Students are employed for fixed-term

Our compensation level follows the recommendations by The Association of Finnish Lawyers. In addition to this we offer you a wide range of benefits and events to support your wellbeing, networking and development:

• sport, lunch and culture benefits and free entry to our private gym including group exercise classes 
• internal trainings and seminars
• monthly breakfasts, personnel events and leisure club activities
• tutoring and feedback rounds

“My career path as such began the day I started at Krogerus.”

My career path as such started on the day I started at Krogerus as an associate trainee. From my first day onwards, I have met the most welcoming and warm co-workers, many of whom have become good friends of mine, who are all highly intelligent and motivated, and who will always exceed themselves when thinking about our clients and their needs.

Samuli Torpisto
Senior Associate

“You can learn an incredible amount just by listening to your senior colleagues and clients.”

The three best things about my traineeship were the people (kind of a cliché, but you’d be surprised), the constant feedback I received during my traineeship (pro tip: write some of it down) and the fact that I was given a true opportunity to show my talent right from the start.
