About You
Very enjoyable, though short
Having a partner give up time to speak to us was a pleasant surprise
The whole process was guided, probably because of the short duration
Many workshops such as networking and branding
The Company
Very structured, clearly timetabled
Very friendly and slightly more relaxed than other firms
Being a short term insight there wasn't much investment
Had the opportunity to shadow people in that position
Spoke to a variety of people, trainees to partners, who gave insight
Not that valuable, but only because I already knew it was what I wanted
Everything Else
Travel expenses, overnight hotel offered
Shadowing and networking
Plenty of drinks, cooking classes which included making pizzas were great fun
Not much time to do stuff outside of work
Enlightening experience
