Overview
The scheme involved a combination of organised talks, project work and opportunities within our assigned seats. We also had regular socials and information sessions that allowed the vacation scheme students to network.
Skills
I have further developed my skills in time management and communication through embracing every opportunity and engaging with professionals from across the firm. Equally, I have learnt how to approach, organise and research within the context of legal tasks - specifically I completed a number of tasks focused on the creation of transaction documents and client communication emails.
Business Insight
The scheme allowed for a comprehensive insight into the work of the firm, and the opportunities available within each practice area. Sessions on pro bono, secondments and DEI highlighted the focus of the firm on personal development and inclusivity.
Culture
The culture of the firm is incredibly supportive and welcoming. Throughout the two weeks everyone made a clear effort to introduce themselves and were extremely open to offering advice and insights to students.
Your Impressions
It was an incredible experience.
