The UNSW Law Society Government & Alternative Careers Guide is a collection of interviews from notable alumni and other inspiring individuals working in non-corporate careers. Included are personal experiences from individuals who have chosen an Government & Alternative Career. These experiences extend from their beginnings as humble law students, right through to the esteemed positions that they currently hold in their respective fields.
We have also included information from a selection of government departments and organisations that offer employment opportunities to law students. A brief summary of their work, what jobs they offer and what they look for in applicants, we hope, will kick-start your own exploration of careers that appeal to you.
