Thank you it's definetely great to know.
I looked up some of the firms you mentioned and saw that they all have academic requirements that are quite similar to the magic circle ones. Given your experience, would you say that US firms, contrary to UK ones, have academic requirements as a...
Yes I was thinking about the costs too but if I can catch a week with 2/3 open days I'll be happy to travel with my own money since it's a great opportunity ! Thank you so much for answering my many doubts, this platform is incredibly helpful!
Thanks that is an interesting insight!! I was kind of excluding american firms automatically as they appeared to me as less accessible that the UK ones but if you say so I will definetly reconsider! I am currently focused on Freshfields the most but I'll be open to more options.
Do you think...
Thank you, that is relieving to hear! I have already looked up their trainees on linkedin to see their background and although many of them are international students, they all somehow studied (often master degrees) in prestigious Uk universities. Do you know by any chance where I can find more...
hello everyone! I would like to ask an honest question, do you think firms like Freshfields and Clifford Chance actuallly consider applications from international students who have not studied in the UK? If so, is anyone in contact with an international student (that has not studied in the...
That is incredible! I am so happy for you. I am also interested in applying for Freshfields, do you have any good advice on how to get a TC without doing a VC with them beforehand? I am an international student, I study law and am currently trying to gain legal experience through interships...
Oh okay I thought so too! I wanted to see more cases mainly to learn how to distinguish between different firms' approaches to corporate law. I want to understand which firm's methods I most align with but I'm not sure how to do that... Do you have any advice? Thank you for answering my questions!
thank you so much these are really helpful! Do you also know where I can find out about some of their other cases? I feel like to get a good idea of the firm's work I need to see more than that... Like is there a website where I can see everything the firm has done for a specific client or is it...
Hello! I was wondering if anyone knows any good websites that reliably list all recent and important cases that magic circle firms/london firms in general, have closed. I know the firms' websites already provide for a few ones but I'd like to see a more organised and detailed list, possibily...
This may be a useless advice but I'll tell you how I usually do these things. I make sure I'm in a good mood, sit at my desk or wherever and let everything out, kind of like a stream of consciousness. While writing things down I start to see connections between my experiences and the story...
Thank you for your suggestions, I think looking for a firm in Italy that has offices in the UK too is probably a very good idea, I'll look into that. A postgraduate degree in the UK on the other hand I'm not sure if it can work, I'm trying to avoid loans and I'd definetely need one to study in...
Yeah I'm studying law in Italy but it's an english degree so I'm not studying italian law but more like international law and various fields of law from a comparative perspective
The problem is that I'm already a second year student and haven't applied for any yet... I'm not sure I'll be able to apply for next summer but there's a variety of problems I'm facing when it comes to applications. First of all, the majority of firms specifically state that the students...
