Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
I sat across two seats attached to a trainee buddy and a principal in each, I got the chance to work on real matters and complete real tasks, and went for coffee chats with people in roles I am interested in.
We had lots of fun socials and really interesting talks from different people in the firm, and completed a project each week which was really interesting.
We got the chance to meet so many people from different levels in the firm!

What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
It was really interesting to learn more about the business behind the headlines, and I feel I have a much better commercial understanding now than when I started
