Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
I attended the Taylor Wessing open day on November 4th 2021. The open day consisted of a presentation from graduate recruitment from a partner in the patents team, a presentation on Taylor Wessing from a partner in the private equity team, a presentation providing application hints and tips, a presentation on how the firm is a responsible business, a networking lunch with trainees and a commercial business game.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was great and very insightful. All of the presentations from Graduate Recruitment and partners, as well as the presentation on the Firm as a responsible business all provided insight into why Taylor Wessing is a wonderful firm. The information provided gave insight into the business that would not be readily available anywhere else.
