Successful candidates will be selected based on their submitted application only. No further assessment is required for this process.

The scheme will give individuals the chance to see how the whole firm operates with a series of interesting talks plus a CV workshop and the chance to complete a research task for their supervisor.
The scheme is open to:
- Individuals studying A-levels or equivalent at the time of the work experience.
- Individuals who have an interest in working in a law firm, whether as a solicitor or in one of our business services teams, be it Finance, Marketing, HR, IT or Knowledge Learning & Development.

There will be five spaces available on the scheme.
We will give priority to individuals who have not had previous similar work experience in a professional services firm and/or as part of a structured programme.
