Overview
The scheme involved sitting in real estate and tax and benefits. I completed a research task in each seat and attended practice overview talks in different practice areas.
Skills
I have developed communication and interpersonal skills by networking with my fellow vacation schemers and lawyers at the firm. I also developed my research skills and written communication skills through the research task.
Business Insight
It was interesting getting an in-depth understanding of the real work and deals that the lawyers are involved in.
Culture
The culture was unique to any other law firm and everyone was so welcoming and supportive. Everyone made a real effort to make me feel a part of the team.
Your Impressions
I had an amazing two weeks and enjoyed every element of my time at the firm.
Yes
I would encourage others to actively talk about their interests when applying and bring their personality to the role.
