The work experience program included multiple tasks and presentations on the legal sector; in particular, commercial law.
I felt that the concept of commercial awareness was particularly valuable. Furthermore, the interactive nature of the course kept me engaged throughout the program, which is more than I could ask for in a virtual placement.
I genuinely enjoyed my work experience - I enjoyed the wide variety of guests that we were exposed to which provided me with a valuable insight into the practicalities of the legal sector.
It was extremely well organised - the Early Talent team was extremely welcoming and willing to help to ensure that I never got lost throughout the program. Furthermore, the forage platform was easy to interact with.
I felt that through the brief glimpse of the presentations led by trainee solicitors, Pinsent seems like a very welcoming and ambitious law firm.
I was previously rather confident in pursuing a legal career but nonetheless, this work experience further solidified my desire to become a lawyer.
No I was not.
Yes, there were. Furthermore, there was a networking opportunity amongst the students who participated in the work experience placement on the last day.
Yes
Extremely thorough and well organised course.
I do not have any specific pieces of advice.
