CPS trainee scheme opens for applications

The Crown Prosecution Service's (CPS) trainee scheme opened for applications last week, with the deadline for submissions set for 31 May2014.

Twenty pupillages and training contracts are on offer for the CPS legal trainee scheme this year. The recruitment process is open to candidates who have already finished their vocational training (the Legal Practice Course or the Bar Professional Training Course), or to those who are due to complete the course this academic year.

The pupillages and training contracts will commence in November 2014.
