[QUOTE="Alice G, post: 26832, member: 1160"] Hi! I am currently working full time for an incredible contract automation start-up and we are part of A&O's Fuse so I am hoping that this is giving me the skills I will need to work in a professional environment whilst helping me to understand Legal Tech better as this is a key focus for FF. I am also being exposed to incredible work which requires a lot of thought and is often unfamiliar so, as I wrote above, I am trying to approach every task like a trainee solicitor would and just giving everything my best go. I am also quite proactive by nature but really trying to seek new work opportunities and offering to help on projects which I actively know will challenge me - this has made me more excited about doing pretty tough work and has built my confidence a lot. Asides from that, I have gotten into a habit of reading the news daily and I really enjoy doing that before starting my day properly so I hope that is allowing me to develop my commercial awareness. I also hope to maybe do a bit more with [USER=1]@Jaysen[/USER] with touring around universities and trying to develop my public speaking confidence a little bit more because it is still a work in progress. That is pretty much it at this stage as my TC does not start until Feb 2022. I will be starting the GDL come September which I am incredibly excited for but I am really just looking forward to what is to come and going to take each step at a time! :) [/QUOTE]
