Overview
I was assigned to a team with both a trainee buddy and Partner to report to. I was fully immersed into the team and was invited to team meetings and assigned work from a variety of colleagues. All of the work I was assigned was interesting and stimulating but I never felt out of my depth with the workload. I was encouraged to network out with my direct team and was assigned work from a variety of departments thanks to this.
Skills
The placement allowed me to develop lots of the skills I have learnt during me degree and the practicality of the work allowed me to see all of the theory I had learned in practice. The opportunity to deepen my understanding of the work my direct managers were working on was really interesting and also just the opportunity to work within an office, learning how to day to day of being a solicitor really works.
Business Insight
The firm were fantastic in showcasing the various opportunities available to us out with being a solicitor. We had talks from various people in the firm and it was demonstrated just how we could utilise our skills as law students in other places within the firm.
Culture
Absolutely fantastic. I was so welcomed to the firm and every single person I interacted with was kind and helpful. I was constantly supported and never made to feel like I was 'just an intern'. The firm put on various events for us and encouraged us to socialise with each other. The firm did not at all feel hierarchal, everyone sat together from senior partners to summer interns and everyone in the team worked together and were more than happy to answer my questions or just have a chat about life in general at the firm.
Your Impressions
I thoroughly enjoyed the placement!
