    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • I sat across two seats attached to a trainee buddy and a principal in each, I got the chance to work on real matters and complete real tasks, and went for coffee chats with people in roles I am interested in. We had lots of fun socials and really interesting talks from different people in the firm, and completed a project each week which was really interesting. We got the chance to meet so many people from different levels in the firm!
