Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the virtual internship and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The virtual work experience consisted of a number of different talks from different people who worked in Clifford Chance and who were associated with Clifford Chance. They were all there to give us advice and an insight into their jobs to help us in our career journeys.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was amazing because everyone had a different experience and perspective, but not one person felt negatively towards their job. And learning more about the roles tag were there in CC was also interesting because I didn’t know that some of them were even there.
