Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
On this Vacation Scheme, we got to sit in a Team and act like Trainees for 2 full weeks. We got to complete normal day to day tasks and got hands-on experience with actual cases.

What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was great being able to join a team as you really got to grasp what it is like working at Clyde & Co. This also allowed you to understand what is important to a law firm and how they make their business. It was a very insightful experience and not something which you would be able to learn without being immersed in the firm's life.
