A mix of individual and group tasks with many presentations and discussions on various areas of the legal industry and the firm.
I gained knowledge on drafting and interpretation. I was able to work on my communication and debate skills. there was also a lot of specific knowledge on types of law and structure of the solicitor path.
I was very engaged. Naturally some tasks were more interesting than others because of my interests but the interactive nature of the programme helped keep it enjoyable.
Very well structured with a clear agenda, good communication and easy to navigate sight.
The programme had a lot of information about the firm and its culture but it was well balanced so it did not appear like an advertisement. I came away thinking it would be a desirable place to work with a strong community feel.
I was already focused on law but it helped give me information on different types of commercial law to consider.

Answer all the questions and trust that they do actually want to hear unique and creative answers.
