Work Experience Student Review

Shadowing trainee solicitors, attending presentations, conducting business exercises

Learnt about many different areas of the law, including pensions and construction. Have honed time-management skills when writing pieces under a set period of time.

Enjoyed the programme very much.

Very valued - was introduced to other employees in the office and made welcome.

Quite structured - had presentations every morning as well as IT/Health & Safety presentations.

Good amount of support- was emailed schedule and dress code etc. well in advance of the placement.

Received a good amount of support considering the solicitors are very busy and have a tight schedule to work under.

Not paid, but the experience was valuable.

Yes, it is a good activity to put on your CV - especially considering the global reach of Pinsent Masons

Yes

Show an interest in law that is based on having read books/looked at legal cases in the newspaper etc.
