    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • The Taylor Wessing Open Day ran from 10 am to 4:15 pm. We had presentations on the firm, its values, and the application process. Lunch was provided, where we had the chance to meet some trainees and network. The day concluded with a commercial awareness business game.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • After a year of online learning and meetings, this in-person open day re-affirmed my confidence in face to face meetings. The commercial awareness business game was a great opportunity to practice teamwork. In my group, I made sure to actively listen to everyone's contributions as well as vocalise my own opinions. By doing this we supported each other and presented our pitch with tenacity.
