Today's Video Focus: Could asylum seekers travelling from New Zealand obtain a visa on arrival in Australia? Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton says that asylum seekers who get to New Zealand can then travel to Australia without first applying for a visa, but is that the full story?
Focus of the Day Story:
More than 70% of trainees have said firms should do more to support them
if they are not going to be kept on as newly qualified
solicitors. Responding to a survey created by NQ Solicitors, a
recruitment platform for junior lawyers, 72% of respondents believed
more support would help them better prepare should they miss out on a
full time role. Examples of potential support included advice over
choice of direction, assisting with CV preparations and preparing for
interviews.
