Overview
The first days were spent attending talks about various aspects of the firm. This gave us helpful insight into the firm and its culture. Then we were assigned a supervisor and spent time with them in their department, meeting trainees, associates and partners as well as doing some work for them. We also were assigned a trainee buddy who we could chat to and who also set us some tasks to do.
Skills
- networking - dealing with different competing tasks - managing my time - making the most out of an opportunity
Business Insight
It was a very interesting experience and I had the opportunity to talk to lawyers undertaking different types of work across the firm. It has helped to increase my knowledge about what it is to be a lawyer and the sort of work that they do on a day to day basis.
Culture
Clydes has a really positive atmosphere and everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. I had trainees, associates and former partners reach out to me and take time to chat and answer questions. Also, people from other departments who I contacted to talk to were proactive and responsive.
Your Impressions
Despite it being a full-on week, I still enjoyed my time as I learnt something new every day. Being able to go into the office was also a plus!
Yes
Be proactive, positive and friendly!
