Vacation Schemes and Traineeships: Tips from Future Trainees | S2E11

Megha is joined by Rahma and Nicola who are future trainees of Brodies and CMS respectively. They talk about their application processes and interviews and how they stayed motivated throughout. They give us some great tips on how to make applications stand out and give us some insight into what exactly these firms are looking for. They also share their summer placement experiences highlighting their favourite aspects and some challenges they faced. We also learn how the practical side of vacation schemes compare to the academic side taught at university. We also talk to us about their journey from gaining vacation schemes to securing traineeships and they reassure those who are on the path to securing direct traineeships.
