VACATION SCHEMES
About the scheme
“At other firms, you are just another cog in a machine. At Weil you have a meaningful and purposeful role to play.” Jonathan
Immerse yourself in different disciplines and experience what Weil has to offer throughout our two-week vacation scheme. This is the chance for you to experience what it is like to be in the spotlight at an elite international law firm. You will spend each week in a different practice area and you will be able to submit preferences in advance. Throughout the scheme you will work alongside senior associates, carrying out trainee tasks and responsibilities. On top of your day-to-day work you will get opportunities to attend various talks and workshops, giving you a better depth of knowledge about Weil and the industries we operate in. If you want to get to know our lawyers and staff in a more relaxed setting, we organise a number of social events for vacation scheme participants; this is a fantastic chance for you to build your network and create relationships.

“It was fantastic. People were really friendly, collaborative and helpful. I felt like I was given a chance to really do something and try the work.” Kate
You will be assessed for a training contract throughout your time on the vacation scheme. A number of assessed elements are scheduled throughout the scheme including: a group exercise, a client pitch and a final round interview. Throughout the two weeks you will be mentored and supported. Your supervisor will always be there to provide you with constructive feedback and answer any questions you may have. We have up to 20 places on our two-week schemes, which run during the spring and summer holidays. You can apply for one of our vacation schemes if you are able to begin a training contract in 2023. Remuneration £500 per week.
