Overview
I assisted solicitors with bundling, proof-reading ET3 response forms and drafting emails to the Employment Tribunal. I was also able to attend client meetings and departmental meetings to gain a full experience into what employment law at PM is like. Additionally, I was able to get involved in some group work with my office taking part in a ‘Dragon’s Den’ competition to promote sustainable working.
Skills
I developed my teamwork skills working on a group project with fellow interns. I also developed my communication skills, attention to detail and my written skills. Through the vacation scheme, I was able to see how I could use my customer service skills in a legal role and I hope to develop this further.
Business Insight
It was great to understand all the different teams that PM has through organised insight talks with solicitors from each team. The talks allowed me to consider where I see myself potentially working in the future which was very helpful. Furthermore, learning about PM as a whole, and the wealth of work they offer was a key reason why I loved the firm.
Culture
The atmosphere was fantastic. Everyone, no matter what level they were at, was so friendly and welcoming. I felt like I could chat to anyone, and importantly, ask questions or ask for help. The firm appears to really take care of everyone and it was nice to have social events with the trainees.
Your Impressions
I loved the Vacation Scheme. It was so enjoyable being in the office and gaining really valuable insights into my future career! PM organised a fantastic scheme, from a really easy application process to a wonderful 2 weeks in the office.
Yes
Prepare well for the different steps of the process and make sure to really show-off your interest in the firm and what they do.
