About You
I really enjoyed the interactive sessions provided by the firm I loved the talks and the many legal insights in the programme. It is friendly and really exciting. It has given me the thrill of a law firm
I felt almost as if I was part of the firm. Really inclusive and the firms shows great commitment in responsible business and diversity.
A lot of guidance. It has everything that a 1st year student should learn. From CV advice to doing a team presentation on a sector.
It helped me in knowing more about the real life commercial law. Knowing the insides of a deal to sector presentations.
The Company
Well structured. Has a systematic timetable of all events.
Friendly and collaborative. The firm was really nice.
They invested a lot. From food, ranging from breakfast to a special dinner evening to the time of the solicitors and partners.
A lot. In many exercises we had the opportunity to be able to act as trainee solicitor, partner and pro bono solicitor.
A lot of insight. There were many presentations on the sectors, practices and responsible business.
It is. This gave me an insight to be able to assess whether City law is for me.
Everything Else
There were a lot of opportunities for networking. From trainee solicitors to partners.
Pro bono and dinners.
Definitely.
