GCSE and A-Level

Immigration law covers an extensive range of matters, and Fragomen’s services go beyond processing visa and work permit applications. It provides important consultative services and support to meet a full spectrum of business immigration needs, including government strategies and compliance, planning for mergers and acquisitions, and consular and document support. 

For those interested in pursuing a career in this area, there are plenty of roles to explore, including Business Immigration Analysts, Professionals, and Attorneys. Its client-facing positions are also supported by an exceptional team of professionals in corporate areas such as marketing, IT, HR, Finance, and more.

Fragomen has a solid commitment to fostering a diverse workplace. Year after year, the firm is recognised for this by The American Lawyer, Law360 and the National Law Journal.

It understands the importance of having an employee population that is as diverse as its clients. This enables it to provide the best legal guidance and drive a vibrant, compassionate, and dynamic workplace that supports its teams in becoming better problem solvers. 

The firm has a long history of promoting women and ethnic minorities to prominent positions within its leadership structure. Over 65% of its employees worldwide are women, and more than 40% of its US employees are minorities – statistics which are unusual for law firms.

In 2020, Fragomen held its first immigration law school to help students who had struggled to secure summer work experience or were disappointed with their A‑Level results. The feedback was so encouraging that it’s decided to bring it back in autumn 2021. 

The school is for A‑Level, Highers (or equivalent) and university students interested in law careers or the politics of immigration. 

You don’t need to be planning to study law at this stage, and the school aims to provide valuable insights into other careers as well, such as government and journalism.

It will take place online over five consecutive Tuesday evenings from 12 October to 9 November 2021, and participants can expect to hear about pursuing a career in law (particularly immigration law), the business side, politics of immigration, human rights, the economy and Brexit, and seeking a job. There will be speakers from Parliament, government, the press, charities, and academia. 

If you’re considering pursuing a career in immigration law, or law in general, it can be helpful to hear from others who have already taken this path.

My Fragomen Story is a collection of video interviews with employees from across the business. These interviews explain the paths that led them to join Fragomen, along with what they enjoy the most about their current roles.
