Overview
Alongside immersing myself into each of the practice areas I was allocated in for the week, I was involved in a mix of informative, social, and collaborative activities. Taylor Wessing scheduled focus-on sessions, allowing us to learn more about the diverse practice areas the firm has to offer. There was also a pro bono workshop, sector panel, and client secondment panels. Alongside that, there were also socials that were organised throughout the two weeks, allowing us to socialise with fellow vacation schemers. At the end of the scheme, we also had a group presentation.
Skills
The scheme has increased my communication and networking skills, and most importantly, my confidence in the workplace. I have also learnt a lot about Taylor Wessing as a firm and the work that trainees get involved with in each practice areas.
Business Insight
It was a very immersive experience that allowed me to get stuck into the legal work and the understand the legal landscape a lot better.
Culture
Everyone was very lovely, welcoming, and eager for a chat.
Your Impressions
I really enjoyed it despite how nervewracking it was initially
Yes
Do your research about the firm and make sure to get involved in pre-scheme events to learn more about the firm beforehand
