    May I ask you what do you mean by non-conventional approach? If you refer to firms heavily hiring from direct TC, then I would say US firms. However, bear in mind that they have small intakes. For what concerns UK firms, I would say that Slaughter and FF hire also from direct TC.

    I never attended an event but heard great things about Samatha and i believe that her social media interactions changed the GR game. The problem is that Shoosmiths is better on a regional level and I live in London.
