    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • There were many engaging talks and lots of opportunities to ask questions about DLA as a firm; its values, approach to topical issues and what it is like to work there. I had the chance to speak to many likeminded individuals in a similar stage of the application as well as talking to those already employed by DLA- all of whom were very welcoming and friendly.
