Bright Sparks Work Experience Scheme Review

It involved daily sessions about how law firms operate, information about interviews and CVs and applying commercial awareness and debating skills on contentious matters e.g; Climate change, war & political voice. It also involved networking with apprentices and shadowing trainees or apprentices of our preferred legal sector to gain a realistic understanding of working at a law firm. The insight included Q&a with trainees and apprentices about pathways into law and how their experiences differed.

During the programme, I have developed my communication and confidence when engaging in a mock debate with others, allowing me to explore different arguments and improve my public speaking.

Understanding all about the business and potential roles in a work experience program was greatly insightful. It provided a comprehensive overview of the different aspects of the legal industry and the various roles and sectors available. It allowed me to explore my interests, gain valuable knowledge, and consider potential career paths. Overall, it was a valuable experience that helped me make more informed decisions about my future.

The environment was filled with motivated individuals who were willing to answer any questions about law and their work at the law firm and were very passionate about what they do. Overall, it was a friendly and supportive atmosphere.

I thoroughly enjoyed the insight as it was a great experience in gaining a deeper understanding of the legal field and the opportunity to learn about law firms, engage in mock debates, and network with professionals was both educational and enjoyable. It was a fantastic chance to develop my skills and broaden my perspective.
