About You
I really enjoyed it. The people were nice, and I felt included in the work. The lectures, social events and tasks outside of the office work were all really good.
Although I knew my work was not overly important, they made sure I learned something form it and I received adequate feedback.
Enough without being babysat.
The presentations organised for us were very informative and insightful, and will surely help create a groundwork for later training contracts and plc studies
The Company
Very well structured and organised.
Very pleasant.
They organised almost daily lectures on a different practice area of the firm.
Of course vacation schemes are a breeze compared to really working at the firm, but they were all honest about the amount of time they spend at the office.
Quite a bit actually.
My time at the firm was divvied among two departments, and it was clear to me that i preferred litigation a whole lot more to funds, although the lectures outside of work also demystified other practice areas.
Everything Else
I was paid £400 a week (and was there fore two weeks)
Enough.
Pleasant
