Recommendations and Advice
Overview of Experience
Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
The Open Day began with an introductory talk from the Early Talent Team and a Graduate Partner, followed by a commercial awareness workshop, a trainee panel, a session offering guidance on the application process and how to succeed, and an introduction to the firm’s Disputes and Investigations practice.
Practical advice was shared throughout the day, and the sessions provided valuable insights into the firm’s key strengths, culture and training opportunities. Overall, it was a well-structured and informative event that gave attendees a clearer understanding of the firm and what it looks for in future trainees.
