WHAT TO DO NOW ...
If interested in any of the above traineeships, you should first make sure that you are registered as an ELSA member on the online system https://www.elsa.org/step/logon.asp.
Once you are registered i.e. you have been ACCEPTED, you should then make sure you complete an online STEP application (a short pro forma CV).
The system should then match you with any suitable traineeships as and when they are uploaded. But, we will also accept a manual application from you if you send ELSA London a completed SAF (short application form). If you are interested in more than one traineeship, you should also send us a completed Flexibility Sheet. You can make a maximum of 3 choices.
Details of other traineeships can be found in the June STEP Newsletter which was sent to you a couple of weeks ago.
