What are legal skills tests?

With any role that you are recruiting for within the law, there are common skills that are needed. Depending on the size of the law firm a candidate may be required to deal with a large number of legal documents, and at any level preparation of cases may be necessary. These tests can give you an understanding of a candidate’s law skills and legal reasoning.

By taking a series of legal aptitude assessments, candidates are tested on their ability to operate in a job position in law. The skills tested include legal spelling, legal typing and legal data entry. Although many applicants may possess a relevant degree, the assessments provide a true reflection of their ability to complete tasks to a high standard and to understand legal terms in text and in practice.
