  • 8. To what extent did the virtual experience help you to understand what it would be like to have a full time role with the company or firm?

    • Due to time constraints, I think it was difficult for the firm to fully showcase what it would be like having a full time role with the firm. However, with the time we had, I think they did a really good job in showing us a variety of tasks that would be expected of a trainee solicitor.
