Recommendations and Advice
Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The scheme gave insight into two of the firm’s departments and an in-depth overview of the training contract.
Each week we completed a research task relevant to our current seat, shadowed our supervisors and attended 2-3 sessions per day introducing us to practice areas.
