Business Insight
My supervisor was incredibly helpful. He sat next to me every single day of my two-week vacation scheme and exposed me to a lot of different work. He explained about different parts of the business outside of the work he does and that he had set me. He was honest, insightful, and inspiring. Above all, he as kind. He was genuinely interested in my understanding and opinions about the work that was set as well as my commercial knowledge. The team I worked in were in an incredibly busy period but this did not negatively impact my experience as a mentee.
Culture
Kind, open, friendly. Lawyers did not seem excessively stressed and people generally seemed happy to be at work.
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed it. I would not have been able to get this kind of insight without being at the firm in this capacity and it is clear that the vacation scheme is structured to expose the realities of working.
Yes
Be authentic and have a good personality. They aren't recruiting robots like some other firms; they are seeking passionate but interesting people who do not necessarily have conventional or stereotypical qualities with regards to their chances of getting into law.
