The Company
Amazingly structured! Katie from graduate recruitment has done an amazing job of structuring the insight!!!
The firm has a "work hard play hard" culture. The people were extremely brilliant at their jobs but still made the time to have a chat with us.
We were invited to workshops and lectures for employees of the firm.
It helped a lot.
Meeting and chatting to everyone in the firm really helps you to get a good feel of the firm.
Everything Else
£300/week
We had trainee lunches, supervisor lunches, speed networking events. Plenty of opportunities to network.
Very fun! We had a pasta-making class and went up to the Duck & Waffle.
Tag-rugby.
Shearman & Sterling is an amazing firm and I highly recommend its vacation scheme.
