If successful, you will spend one week at your chosen office within each of the main disciplines practised in that office, including company/commercial, employment, litigation and commercial property. You will work closely with current trainees and qualified solicitors and experience the opportunities which open to their trainees including (where possible) attendance at client meetings, hearings, and seminars.
Your Application
As with all firms, places on the work experience scheme are limited in number. Candidates should complete an online application form by clicking here Please note that the application process for the 2017 vacation scheme will close on 31 March 2017.
Candidates should have good A-level grades and have graduated (or be predicted to graduate) with a 2:1 degree or better. Whilst we have no preference between law and non-law students, in line with training contract applications, non-law candidates will typically have completed their first degree before undertaking a vacation placement and law candidates will have completed their second year of study. All candidates for the vacation placement scheme should be committed to pursuing a career as a lawyer in a successful commercial law firm and ideally a future career with Howes Percival.
The Changemaker Hub can support you with your applications, book an appointment via the Changemaker Hub accessed via the student portal.
