Overview
For the virtual internship, we attended talks from members of the firm around the UK, Ireland and the UAE. We also took part in a group project exercise, where we had to make a pitch on behalf of DLA Piper to prospective clients.
Skills
I learned a lot about pitching a law firm to clients, as well as how DLA Piper operates across the globe.
Business Insight
The internship programme highlighted very clearly what would be expected at different levels throughout the organisation, and what tasks prospective trainees would have.
Culture
It was very welcoming throughout, and every person I interacted with from all levels of the firm was incredibly kind and understanding.
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed the insight
Yes
Really research the firm's culture and values. There is so much emphasis placed on this. As well, having a wide commercial awareness is vital, as the firm operates on such a global scale.
