Overview
Across the two weeks, we spent a week in two different departments. We carried out work reflective of what a trainee solicitor would be tasked with doing, such as drafting, carrying out legal research, and filling in different legal documents. I was also able to attend a variety of different meetings, and speak to different lawyers at the firm. We also attended a series of talks from the different practice areas that the firm offers.
Skills
I was able to take part in tasks that contained information and legal knowledge that I hadn't covered before. This was very interesting, and allowed me to develop my legal research skills, learn new terminology, and view the ways in which lawyers apply their legal knowledge on a daily basis.
Business Insight
Viewing the ways in which the firm operates as a business was extremely interesting. It was great to get an insight into the various ways one can get involved in the business development of the firm, as well as the way one can shape their own career at the firm.
Culture
Everyone was extremely welcoming, and I was constantly encouraged to ask questions and speak to people of all levels of seniority. The talent team was constantly on-hand if I had any questions, and my supervisor and trainee buddy were helpful and supportive throughout the scheme.
Your Impressions
I absolutely loved the scheme.
Yes
Make sure to fully research the firm and learn about its different sectors and values - it's important to make sure that these align with your own values and legal interests.
