Overview
2 week vacation scheme at the firm. During this time we sat in 2 different seats which were chosen by each student. Day to day tasks varied per seat but students were expected to complete tasks for supervisors/buddies, undertake research and voluntarily speak with colleagues across the firm to learn more about the role and the firm itself.
Skills
Definitely. I learnt how to undertake legal research and write it out in a concise and understandable way as my research was sent directly out to clients. Networking skills were developed. Also learned how to use all the IT technology that all lawyers use.
Business Insight
Very good. We had daily talks from different departments and also from business development teams to understand their role within the firm as a business.
Culture
The firm’s culture is one of the things that attracted me to apply for the scheme and it was as expected. The culture is what makes TW stand out and I cannot express how friendly and approachable everyone was.
Your Impressions
I thoroughly enjoyed the scheme and learnt so much. It was also great to meet so many people within the firm and it was clear they also felt the same.
Yes
Emphasise why TW stands out to you compared to other firms, and be specific about this. Mention how your experiences and your skills suit the type of work that you would encounter at the firm.
