Shoosmiths' graduate recruitment manager, Samantha Hope, explains how to maximise a work experience opportunity and how the insight you gain throughout a placement could strengthen your ability to perform at an assessment centre.

She also talks about what you can do to demonstrate your commitment to a career in law if you didn't secure work experience for this summer.

Samantha is joined by #ShoosmithsPlacement candidates Jess and Alex, who are completing their one-week placement in Shoosmiths' Milton Keynes office.

Watching this video will give you the advice you need to immerse yourself into the culture and values of a law firm and work out whether that environment is the right fit for you. This video is aimed at both law and non-law candidates who are considering working in a law firm, and you can even ask your own questions by typing them into the comments during the live video.
