Vacation Scheme

In 2012 we will be running two vacation schemes during July. As a vacation scheme student, you are a potential trainee and are therefore treated as such. You will sit with either a partner or an assistant solicitor and you will experience 'real work' of the type that a trainee would undertake. Other activities will include attending lunchtime seminars, visits to the Courts and departmental presentations. Our aim is that our vacation scheme should offer you a real insight into what it would be like working as a trainee at the firm.
