Work Experience Student Review

Our week consisted of a balance between presentations, talks, Q&As, interactive activities, and legal tasks.

Commercial awareness, problem solving, public speaking, mooting, team building, critical thinking, attention to detail, report writing

I really enjoyed the experience! All the trainees, associates, and students were open and kind. We were given many opportunities to ask questions and network with one another.

Very well structured. The time blocking was neither too long/short. We were given a good variation between presentations, interactive team activities, and independent tasks.

I was intent on studying law prior to joining the programme. Working with Pinsent Masons reinforced this motive.

No; because the experience was virtual, there was no salary/travel reimbursement.

Yes! We had many opportunities to meet trainees, partners, grad recruitment, and other interns (both during sessions and during lunch).

Yes

Open work culture; exciting tasks; a good variation of topics and activities covered; well structured and organised; excellent chance for networking

Don't be afraid! The PM grad recruitment team is incredibly welcoming, so either way this will be an excellent opportunity. Make sure to show your true self and be as specific as possible (in terms of application form). Don't worry too much about knowledge: no prior legal experience is needed.
