For the question about who you know at the law firm, are you able to cite people you have independently reached out and contacted? I have done a lot of outreach via LinkedIn to trainees, in order to really understand the culture of the firm, does this count?- hopefullawyer101

Can anyone give me some insight on whether I am best placed to apply for Slaughter and May's 'Winter Workshop' or just a direct TC? The winter workshop seems to indicate you have the opportunity to apply for a TC at the end, is this in the form of a TC interview or you have to complete the...- hopefullawyer101

Why is A&O considered cutting edge?
I totally understand this and I apologise for the vagueness of the post, its something I will work on next time. It is sometimes intimidating because many other people on here appear to be much better equipped, more knowledgeable and generally make me feel totally like I am not good enough to go...- hopefullawyer101

I think there's no problem asking for others input for examples when...- hopefullawyer101
