    Overview

  • 1. Please give an overview of the insight and what was involved on a day-to-day basis.
  • Days varied depending on the practice area you are sat in. Generally though there were multiple sector-on focus sessions throughout the two weeks which were extremely informative - especially those that I was not sat in. In between sessions and practice area work, we were encouraged to schedule chats with people around Taylor Wessing which provided an opportunity to fill the gaps in knowledge of the firm. People were really friendly and willing to dedicate time to have a chat which was really appreciated.


    Skills

  • 2. Have you learnt any new skills or developed existing skills?
  • I gained a lot of corporate experience and developed my time management skills. The two weeks are busy and you are encouraged to make the most of it. This highlights the importance of organisation and communication with your supervisors to update them on your whereabouts.

    Business Insight

  • 3. What was it like understanding all about the business and potential roles available?
  • The Early Talent team clearly dedicated a lot of time to ensuring that we received a holistic understanding of the business - from pro bono workshops, client presentations and sector focus talks. It was also helpful to understand the firm beyond the website, like the knowledge hub and lawyers at the firm who provide invaluable assistance to the wider firm in keeping everyone up to date.
