    Middle East Training Contracts - Arabic skills

    Hi! I'm about to do a vacation scheme at Latham & Watkins in Dubai (although they don't offer Middle East Training Contracts). I guess I can help with the first question. In my interviews, a lot of the questions were about trying to gauge my level of Arabic, why I study it, and how I have...
