    About You

  • 1. To what extent did you enjoy the insight?
  • The insight was absolutely fantastic. I learnt so much from just a week, this was largely down to the fact that everybody I worked with welcomed me into their office so warmly. I felt valued and supported throughout, this gave me the confidence to have a go at any tasks I was given and to ask questions if I ever needed to. I got to know many people at the firm in the short amount of time I was there, they were all highly intelligent and capable yet still completely down to earth. It was a brilliant experience and I saw that Walker Morris really does live by the values it proclaims to hold. I came away motivated and inspired to attempt to continue a long lasting relationship with the firm.

  • 2. To what extent did you feel valued during your time at the company or firm?
  • I felt completely valued during my week at the firm. This is one of the emotions I felt most strongly throughout my work experience. Everyone I came into contact with seemed genuinely interested in getting to know me and were also more than happy offer help and advice when needed. I was involved with live cases and was made to feel that my contribution was helpful through informal feedback from different people I was working with.
