My daily tasks included a variety as I was in different departments everyday, ensuring me to gain the a lot from my work experience. These tasks included summarising and researching various different topics.
I have learnt how to communicate with people of different age groups which has also allowed me to gain confidence in my speaking skills. I have also learnt how to work in different working environments.
I really did enjoy the programme as I was working with a different team everyday this allowed to gain a lot of knowledge in the criteria that I want to work in.
I feel highly appreciated by the different workers here and gained a lot of internal recognition. The supervisors gave me clear tasks which really made the work experience highly valued.
It is as the first day was structured in being a induction day but then in the afternoon we were required to go to our practice group which were in different departments everyday. Everyday there was a presentation on a different subject and then after the presentation we were allocated in our departments.
I got a lot of support from my supervisor as they were easily accessible and gave me a lot of guidance with any problems that I had faced. their attitudes towards us as inferiors was really good and help me understand anything if I was unsure of.
I gained a lot of support for all of the departments. This was because they gave me a lot of guidance with any problems that I had faced and they had a very good attitude towards supporting me
I t meets very well, however there is a high cost of travelling to and from Leeds as I was using the public train. However the location of the firm was very accessible.
Yes there was for example they had lunch events and yoga sessions at lunch times. There are also lots of company activities and they are very strongly communicated with the local community.
Yes
As this is one of the leading national firms, and for them to give you that opportunity is very great. They allow you to explore different aspects of Law and the firm and help you decide if Law is the right thing for you.
There is no interview process so that would be good if someone is insecure about interviews. There is a long application process which I advise to take it slowly and step by step.
