Linklaters: does its training contract sponsor a UK visa?

No published policyTraining Contract

Unconfirmed. Linklaters publishes no sponsorship policy for its training contract, so we cannot state a firm answer. Fetched Linklaters' careers homepage and early-careers navigation directly this session. Neither surfaces any language about Skilled Worker visas, certificates of sponsorship, or right-to-work requirements for trainees. A Magic Circle firm of this size almost certainly holds a Skilled Worker sponsor licence, but that is an inference, not a stated policy, so it is not published here as a verdict.

What is covered: Unstated

The catch: Magic Circle firms are consistently silent in public-facing careers copy on this topic. Do not infer sponsorship from licence-holder status or peer-firm norms; treat as genuinely unknown until the firm states a policy.
