Clyde & Co, Eversheds and Osborne Clarke have become the latest firms to announce trainee retention rates for this autumn's qualifiers, with Clydes retaining 100% of its UK intake.

With all of the 39 offers made to Clydes' UK qualifiers being accepted, the firm joins the RPC and Weil Gotshal & Manges in posting perfect retention score this autumn.

33 of Clyde's qualifiers will be placed in London and three in Manchester, while two trainees will qualify into the firm's Dubai office and one into its San Francisco base.

A further four offers were made to trainees in Hong Kong and Dubai, of which three were accepted, giving the firm a global retention rate of 98%.

The firm's retention rate has grown steadily since merging with Barlow Lyde & Gilbert in 2011. The firm held on to 91% of trainees in 2012 and 94% in 2013 for its autumn qualifying intakes.

Eversheds, meanwhile, has announced a combined retention rate across its spring and autumn intakes this year of 88%, with 51 of its 58 total qualifiers staying on at the firm. Of the six trainees in the spring intake, all were made and accepted offers.

Osborne Clarke (OC) has also posted its results, retaining six of its nine August qualifiers (67%). Four of the six had previously participated in the firm's vacation scheme, and the qualifiers will be spread evenly across six different practice areas.

For the same recruitment round last year, OC kept on all eight of its qualifiers.
