About You
I found the Insight Event to be quite enjoyable. It was very well organised and was intellectually stimulating. The commercial exercise also was a huge success and made the event that much more enjoyable.
I felt extremely valued during my time at the event as all the questions that I had asked were answered. During the commercial exercise we were also accompanied by a current trainee who was there to help us whenever we needed.
Thoughout the event I received a lot of guidance/support, from the members of the graduate team as well as from the current trainees who were there to support us during the commercial exercise that took place.
This Insight Event included a commercial exercise which was quite useful. I think it has prepared me well for when I participate in such exercises during assessment centres. The application workshop was also a great help as it allowed me to understand what law firms require from their future trainees.
The Company
The event was very well structured. From the start we were told about the structure and the event flowed exactly as outlined in the beginning.
The general atmosphere was very lively. The graduate team and the partner both encouraged us to ask questions which resulted in a very interactive event.
With guidance from the trainee appointed to us during the commercial exercise I was able to further improve my negotiation skills.
The event in this regard was quite helpful as it painted a very attractive and detailed picture of what working at Dentons would be like.
The insight allowed me to understand the company culture in quite detail, however, since this was a virtual event we were not able to have a tour of the office and experience the culture in that way.
Everything Else
This was a virtual Insight Event, therefore, there was no requirement for a reimbursement.
Since this was a virtual event there were not enough opportunities to network.

This was a very insightful event. I would highly recommend this to a friend.
