Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.

We attended talks and did a career fair regarding departments at the firm. We then shadowed a trainee and learnt about cases the employees worked on.

What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?

It was incredibly useful to learn about the day to day life at the firm and the impact individuals can have. It was also good to know about the unique qualities of each department and see how well they would suit you.
