[QUOTE="Patrick - Osborne Clarke, post: 218567, member: 42481"] Hi Nicole, Thanks for your questions. 1. In all honesty, I always recommend a Vac Scheme. Not only is it a great opportunity for you to enhance your application, it is really important to make sure we are the right firm for you to train with e.g do you like the work, the people, the environment... so if you can I would highly recommend! 2. There is so much going on at OC and I can genuinely say there is something for everyone to get involved in no matter your interest. I've been involved in couple of things related to my role including something called The Bridge which works with disadvantaged schools in our office's locale providing them with careers and application advice. I have also ran careers sessions with refugees looking to enter the legal sector after resettling in the UK and also worked with ex-armed forces personnel transitioning out of the services. This has been really rewarding and interesting development. From another side, I ran the Bristol 10K alongside some of my colleagues raising money for our location charity which was great! On a side note, we have a wide range of networks covering social mobility, age, gender, pride and neurodiversity. We also have a run club, I do weekly spin classes in our studio with some of my team and there are sessions running throughout the year for different events or religious holidays. Hope that gives you the insights you need! [/QUOTE]
