Overview
Varied from day to day, for example I went to court one day to watch a case, I spent some time reviewing evidence and helping to research new laws. There was usually then a couple of other sessions given to the whole cohort about particular departments as well as the assessments on the last day.
Skills
Learnt a lot more about a litigation role as opposed to a transactional role. Also helped me to push me to show initiative when engaging with the solicitors, knowing that my input was valued.
Business Insight
Mishcon were very proactive and helped explain the key departments in the business as well as the overall long-term strategy, talking with us about things such as the Taylor Vintners merger.
Culture
Really positive culture. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful and helped me to not feel completely out of place.
Your Impressions
I found it great and a really rewarding experience and would recommend to anyone applying for a training contract.
Yes
Make the most of the vacation scheme by talking to the other people on it and the different solicitors in the other departments as they can help to provide insight outside of the work that you’re doing.
