Overview
On the first day we were introduced to the firm with a range of different workshops. These included an introduction into the firm's business and mission, an in-depth overview of their innovative tech solutions, a hands-on pro bono case study and even a firm/art tour. On the second day we were allowed to shadow a department of our preference.
Skills
I learned a lot more about innovative tech solutions and gained in-depth insights into the work of a commercial law trainee.
Business Insight
It was very insightful and enjoyable. We were given tips to apply to the vacation scheme cycle and perform well in the assessment centre for next year.
Culture
It was incredibly warm and welcoming. The company culture and atmosphere were the highlight of the scheme for me.
Your Impressions
Enjoyed it a lot. Especially appreciated the idea of a fun social at the end of day 1 to relax and get closer with the rest of the first-year scheme cohort.
Yes
Make it genuine and personable.
