Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
Carried a variety of trainee-level tasks and undertook real client work. This varied daily but included attending meetings to take notes, undertaking legal research and drafting memos. Interspersed was various social activities and opportunities to network with others on the scheme and already at the firm.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
Very well structured opportunities to speak to those working in areas of interest to you and to approach trainees informally for conversations about their true experience and reflection of the business. Made easy by everyone’s approachability.
