Insight Programme at DLA Piper

DLA Piper
Insight / Vacation Scheme (< 4 Weeks)

I thoroughly enjoyed this insight programme. There was a range of activities in the schedule for the 3 day period which included a mixture of talks from various employees and also group tasks. Most of these activities were good however there were some I found more useful than others. I must mention that the grad recruitment team were incredibly approachable which overall increased my enjoyment in the programme.

Insight Scheme Attendee at DLA Piper

DLA Piper
Insight / Vacation Scheme (< 4 Weeks)

I thoroughly enjoyed the insight scheme. It was a great few days at the London office, it was fun and interesting throughout. We met the most senior lawyers for the firm and everyone who spoke to us were enthusiastic and supportive. Definitely worth applying for if you are interested in gaining a real insight into DLA Piper and commercial law. As much as it was extremely worthwhile, the insight programme did have a large cohort of 80. It also did not enable students to shadow solicitors. The programme consisted of presentations and interactive exercises. Nevertheless, it was throughly enjoyable as I met loads of new friends and learnt a lot!

Insight / Vacation Scheme (< 4 Weeks)

I really enjoyed the DLA Piper Insight Programme. The Grad Recruitment Team took the time to meet us before the programme at the hotel and the range of programmes increased my understanding of the workings of an international law firm and DLA Piper's commitment to Pro Bono, Diversity and Inclusion and its international expertise. Each event was really informative and engaging and the speakers made their workshops interactive and fun! The friends I made during the Programme is a great bonus!

I very much enjoyed this insight programme. It was rather long (3 days) and sometimes the talks went on for a bit too long but it was genuinely enjoyable for a few reasons. The food we received was very good, everything was paid for and we were able to claim back everything. the speakers and activities were really interesting and enjoyable and i met so many wonderful people.

First Year Insight Programme at DLA Piper

DLA Piper
Insight / Vacation Scheme (< 4 Weeks)

The 3 day insight programme could not have been more valuable to first year students, especially as attending open day etc is all very new. Extensive detail was given by partners, trainees and the graduate team about the firm and general application process. We were made to feel at home instantly, and each day was thoroughly enjoyable!

I had a great time on this vacation scheme at DLA Piper. The induction week in London was great and all the presentations and tasks gave me a variety of things to do. The two weeks in Sheffield were just as good as there were plenty of things organised after work and overall, this was a very enjoyable vacation scheme.
