Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
I attended meetings, completed trainee task work, attended workshops, and met with different people at the firm to find out more about their experiences working at Clyde & Co.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was a helpful experience and due to the non-hierarchal structure in place at the firm, I felt that there was lots of opportunity to learn from a variety of different people within the structure which further enabled my understanding of the firm's culture.
