Overview
We had scheduled sessions, formal and informal networking, group work, assessed tasks, socials, pro-bono shadowing, diversity & inclusion events and independent work within the department.
Skills
I undertook a variety of tasks, which developed a range of skills. I was able to utilise my research skills, but also further developed my ability to summarise complex concepts and communicate them clearly in a way that is suitable for clients and my supervisor. The group exercise also allowed me to further learn how to work as part of a team.
Business Insight
My vacation scheme at Taylor Wessing gave me insights into areas of law, such as Private Wealth, that I had not considered before. It also provided an insight into its cutting-edge sectors focus, clientele, variety of work and opportunities for innovation, client and international secondments.
Culture
From the events, socials, networking, and diversity and pro-bono activities, it became obvious to me that Taylor Wessing is a friendly firm that attracts intelligent friendly people. You could feel the atmosphere of camaraderie and community.
Your Impressions
I felt that the vacation scheme was really enjoyable because I was able to get to grips with the firm, Taylor Wessing's culture and what it would be like to work for them as a trainee. The vacation scheme gave me the opportunity to enjoy myself while working there for the week.
Yes
Research what makes Taylor Wessing unique, interact with the firm, and be yourself through the application process, making sure that your personality and passion for the work they do come across well.
