Overview
We got involved with various department tasks with corporate, banking and finance, restructuring, and construction. Everyday we had insight and networking sessions which allowed us to meet firm employees and understand the culture and work that goes on.
Skills
I developed a greater understanding of legal documents and tasks undertaken in a legal firm. I also developed my creative thinking and problem solving skills.
Business Insight
It was intriguing to hear everyone's experiences and journeys to becoming solicitors. It was refreshing to see Gateley's culture shining through all of the firm's members and getting a clear oversight of the work being done.
Culture
It's a friendly and open environment. You feel comfortable enough to reach out to anyone for more information about a particular department or even a chat over coffee! They are also open it suggestions on how they can improve and reach their culture objectives.
Your Impressions
This was truly a much needed experience for an aspiring solicitor such as myself. I enjoyed meeting everyone and immersing myself in the tasks provided.
Yes
Be yourself! Also don't be afraid to reach out to others for help/guidance and get to know the people around you.
