HOW YOU’LL LEARN
VACATION SCHEMES
A vacation scheme at Herbert Smith Freehills is a chance to decide if the legal profession, and our firm, is the right choice for you.
On our vacation scheme you’ll sit with a partner or an associate and do real work for real clients. You’ll attend workshops and presentations that will give you an insight into the depth and breadth of our service areas. On top of that, you’ll be invited to a range of formal and informal social events where you’ll have the opportunity to network with other vacation scheme students, partners, associates and trainees. You’ll be paid £400 per week for the time you spend with us, and at the end of your scheme you’ll be interviewed for a training contract. International schemes We’re able to offer truly global work experience. So, if you accept a place on our spring or summer vacation scheme, we’ll give you the opportunity to spend a fortnight in one of our other offices. You can choose from Sydney, Melbourne, Brussels, Hong Kong, Madrid, Paris, Shanghai, Singapore or Tokyo.
