Recommendations and Advice
Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
I was able to sit in Antitrust & Foreign Investment for three weeks. During the scheme, I undertook assessed work as well as helping team members in my practice area. We also attended scheduled sessions which included talks from the firm's main practice areas as well as skills sessions and workshops. I learnt a lot about the structure of the firm, the type of work they undertake, their clients and their strategy.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
I found it very interested to put all of the skills I have learnt whilst undertaking my degree into practice.
