I enjoyed the vacation scheme immensely as it was a great opportunity to learn a lot more about the firm, and also to develop personally through the challenges faced at work. I gained a better understanding of what the real estate department does in pract...
I enjoyed the vacation scheme to a large extent. Generally, the people at the firm were very willing to get to know us, delegate meaningful tasks, provide guidance and feedback. BCLP's practice areas and strength in real estate and asset finance were quit...
I highly enjoyed my internship at Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner. The programme was well designed, with numerous learning sessions and coffee chats (virtual).
Real work opportunities. Trainees, associates and even partners are very engaging and of course encouraging. They invest time in training and nurturing talents. Lots of inter-office webinars that keep colleagues updated of the recent legal development, wh...
The scheme was well put together and exposed me to BCLP at a level I didn't expect. Although virtual, I feel I didn't miss out on anything BCLP had to offer. The friendly culture of the firm was as evident as the firm's high-quality training - further inc...
I really enjoyed the Virtual Vacation Scheme offered by the firm. We were allocated a Trainee Buddy in our chosen seat and had virtual coffees with other members of the department. The webinars were very interesting and it was clear that the sessions h...
The virtual vacation scheme was brilliant and far exceeded my expectations. I was concerned with it being a virtual scheme, I might not get a feel for the firm. However, through the virtual sessions and number of representatives of the firm I got to speak...
The vacation scheme had become virtual because of Covid-19 and so I was expecting less from the scheme. However, I was mistaken. I thoroughly enjoyed the scheme, as I got to attend numerous sessions and socials with the firm. I got to arrange coffees with...
It was a really good insight into the firm. It was really well structured and gave myself and the other vacation schemers a really good feel for both the culture and the work at BCLP. This would likely have been a 10 had it not been for the pandemic forci...
It was a really positive introduction to the firm, especially as the vacation scheme was intended to run for 2 weeks instead of 1. I really enjoyed having the opportunity to learn more about the culture of BCLP, as well as looking at case studies of the w...
For an online scheme, it was fantastic. We had fantastic engagement with partners, associates and trainees. We even had a session with the London Managing Partner. Very well organised and the technology run surprisingly well.
I enjoyed the vacation scheme to a great extent! I gained so much information about the firm and from a wide range of speakers. This included an Introduction to the firm, Introduction to Innovation, Client and International Secondments available, and als...
This was one of the best legal experiences I have had. I truly learned a lot and gained a better insight into the type of matters the firm handles. This only made me want to secure a training contract with the firm even more.
I absolutely loved the virtual vacation scheme BCLP ran. The support given by lawyers from all levels of seniority was truly invaluable. The firm not only educated me on the culture, work and training but also informed me on industry trends, challenges an...
It was really great fun and I think the grad recruitment team did a great job pulling everything together in such a short amount of time!
It was genuinely a greatly insightful experience. I had the opportunity to ask different individuals, at all levels of the firm, questions and they were always enthusiastic to respond. Further, I learned a great deal of new information about Bryan C...
I enjoyed the scheme thoroughly. I was hoping to find out both about the firm's culture as well as get an in-depth insight into its work and I felt that the scheme was designed to address both of these aspects thoroughly. Because of its strong interacti...
I thoroughly enjoyed my insight. The amount of knowledge and expertise we were exposed to was incredible and I really felt like I was given an in-depth insight into the work and culture of the firm despite the scheme being run online. The presentations/se...
The key highlight for BCLP's virtual vacation scheme was definitely the ability to get in touch with not only junior fee earners, but also senior fee earners and their willingness to satisfy you curiosity about their work and experiences, but also about t...
