First Steps Week Intern Review

I had a great time at the CMS Aberdeen office. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. I was given a variety of interesting and challenging work, and my buddy in the program really took her time to explain the background information to each task. The trainees were all willing to answer any questions I had

I was given a variety of interesting and challenging work which was part of the actual work the trainees had to do themselves. The idea was to contribute as much as we could to

The amount of guidance and support I received during the insight was incredible. We had IT training and workshops on presentation skills and negotiation skills on our first day which was really helpful. My buddy and her fellow trainees were always ready to answer any questions about trainee life and the legal profession in general.

Being immersed in a law firm, albeit just for a few days, was incredibly eye-opening and inspiring for an aspiring lawyer.

The programme was very well structured. We had some trainings on the first day, trainee panel on the second day, and presentation and farewell drinks on the last day.

The general atmosphere in the office was quite relaxed.
