HOW YOU’LL LEARN

ACTIVITIES FOR FIRST YEARS

It’s never too early to start thinking about becoming a brilliant lawyer. Get in touch during your first year of study and you’ll have a great opportunity to gain the skills you’ll need to apply successfully for a vacation scheme or training contract.

Attending a first-year workshop Every Spring we run two, two-day workshops at our London office, each for around 30 students. These are designed to give you an idea of what life at the firm is really like. You’ll hear from leading lawyers, take part in interactive workshops, discover the variety of the law we practise, and shadow one of our current trainees. Becoming a campus manager Our coveted campus manager positions are open to first-year students who go on to perform the role during their second year on campus. It’s a fantastic way to gain valuable work experience and find out more about the firm – plus you’ll earn £600 for the year. You’ll attend a training day at our London office, where you’ll meet the team and a number of partners, associates and trainees. You’ll be actively involved in putting together a campaign to promote Herbert Smith Freehills to your fellow students on campus – informing them about both the firm and the opportunities available to them.

We screen on a rolling basis so we advise you to get your application in as early as possible.
