Hi All,
We are planning to launch our first conference in 2019. It's going to be an intensive event packed with commercial classes, workshops, mock interviews and networking sessions.
I want the conference to really add value to your applications and future career, so I wanted to reach out to see what you would find useful in an event like this. If you could design the perfect conference, what would you include?
There are no wrong suggestions here, so please feel free to be as creative as you would like.
My ideas so far:
Classes
Thank you!
PS: This is going to be for students, future trainees and trainees, so if you're already secured a training contract, please feel free to share your advice on what would be useful for you.
PPS: You may have seen me alluding to some big news before. This isn't the big news, that'll come later this week.
Best,
Jaysen

My ideas so far:
Classes
- An Introduction to the City (mergers and acquisitions and the financial markets)
- How do law firms run as a business (taught by a managing partner)
- The future of law firms
- US v UK firms (panel discussion)
- 15-minute mock interview sessions
- Mock case study practices
- Real legal technology practice (from a legal AI firm)
- How to improve your writing? (from a former MC partner)
- How do you improve your applications (from a former MC recruiter)
- How do you excel during your training contract (for future trainees and trainees)
Thank you!
