Overview of Experience

Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
Almost 50 applicants were welcomed to INTERFACE to discuss the IGNITE training contract opportunity at Clifford Chance for the 2025/2026 cohort. A panel of trainees and associates of the firm shared their experiences with regards to their respective practice areas. The networking sessions allowed attendees to ask the graduate recruitment team questions about the application process.
What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
Learning about current and future roles at Clifford Chance was exciting. I feel encouraged to make an application. Ultimately, I feel like my goals align with the firm’s.
