Overview
During my two week scheme at Linklaters I was able to take part in various sessions to learn more about the firm and the departments. Furthermore I got to sit in the Antitrust department to see what the lawyers in that department work on. I was also able to network with a variety of people at the firm to learn about their career path and progression.
Skills
Some key skills that I have developed are: time management, organisation, social and emotional intelligence, remaining confident in my abilities and adaptability.
Business Insight
It was very insightful to learn about the business as well as the various sectors. Hearing from individuals who worked in these different sectors allowed me to understand how they are all unique in their own way but also intersect to provide the finished product/ close the matter.
Culture
The company culture was very supportive. All members of the firm were willing to take time out of their day to chat with me and answer any questions I had regardless of how busy their schedule was. Furthermore, it was very easy to build a rapport with members of the firm.
Your Impressions
I feel like I received a deep insight into the life as a trainee/ lawyer at Linklaters.
Yes
Research the firm well! Go in with an open mind as you will learn a variety of new things. Have questions prepared to ask members of the firm.
