Generally, we hire six to eight summer students every year.

We will be hiring 2026 summer students in accordance with the Vancouver Bar Association Guidelines. The deadline for summer student applications is Wednesday, August 27, 2025 at 11:59PM PT. On-campus interviews (“OCIs”) will occur throughout September. Please speak with your Career Services Officer to determine the OCI date for your school. We plan to participate in OCIs for most Canadian Schools.

Interview week begins Monday, October 20, 2025. We currently expect in-firm interviews will be conducted in-person.

To apply for our summer student program, please direct your cover letter, resume, a copy of your law school transcript and your undergraduate marks to the attention of Christine York, Director of Associate + Student Programs.  You may also include reference letters, and a list of law courses you intend to take, although these are not required.

We encourage you to submit your application through the online portal, vilawportal.com. We also accept applications through mail or e-mail
