[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 22617, member: 2672"] secondments don’t work like that. At best you will get one six month secondment, or possibly two three month secondments. In my 15+ years of doing this, I can remember one person doing more than one international secondment and that was 9 months and more a fluke as they were on a project and no one else could go. It’s important for you to get experience in your home jurisdiction that you are qualifying into, and getting as much experience as possible is key. Unless the firm offers a guaranteed secondment (and even then it might be a client secondment), typically trainee secondments are in a minority. [/QUOTE]
