work experience student Review

My work experience involved many different activities and workshops that provided support and insight into people who were interested in different careers. There were many people from different backgrounds who informed us about different job sectors in a very easy way for us to understand. Overall, the work experience was great

I learnt many different skills such as learning how to be confident in talking to new people and being able to listen to what they have to say also. As well as this, I've learnt what skills are required for the job sector I was interested in such as being able to build rapport with clients.

I enjoyed this work experience very thoroughly. It consisted of varying activities, workshops and panels that gave a very informative insight into multiple job areas. It was presented in an enjoyable way as to not overload us with information and kept us engaged. Overall, this work experience was great! Yay

It was very organised. Surprisingly, there were no technical difficulties and the adults responsible of this work experience ensured that everything was up to an exceptional standard. I am very happy about this because it meant I could focus on the workshops and tasks at hand. Therefore, I believe that this event was organised very well.

I learnt a lot. What I really enjoyed about this work experience was that they provided very informative and supportive insight to us to benefit our pursuit of knowledge into varying job areas whilst simultaneously linking this to how the company operates and how well the company cares for its employees.

I think it helped a lot. This is because initially, before this work experience I was quite unsure of what career path I wanted to take. But through this work experience, I believe that it has helped me to direct my future career paths that I hope to take. I still will continue to further research upon my future career path but this work experience has helped me a lot.

No I was not

Yes there was a lot of opportunities like this. For instance, the company provided us with a networking lunch for us to get to know the other people participating in this work experience which I believe provided a great balance between receiving information from other employees and then also people participating in the work experience to make it a little more relatable.

Yes

During the work experience, I could see just how great and supportive Pinsent Masons as a company is to its employees. Through each task and interacting with their employees, this showed me how lovely it would be to work at a company such as Pinsent Masons. Pinsent Masons doesn't just provide a conventional career route to its employees but seems very flexible and helpful which I think is great to see in a company.

I don't think I feel fully qualified in giving advice to others this early on. However, I would say that when applying to Pinsent Masons, be very thorough and detailed about what it is you are looking for and what it is you want and make sure to cover all areas of what it is you are applying to.
