Open Days are very useful for candidates to get to know both the unique selling points of the firm they are attending an Open Day at, and gain an insight into life as a trainee solicitor and as a commercial lawyer in general. However, they are not necessary, and no firm will disadvantage you in their application process for not having attended (or indeed applied for) an Open Day with them!I would advise you to make sure that you can clearly articulate why you want to work at the firm, here Paul, Weiss. There are many resources you can rely on to understand a firm, such as virtual law fairs, TCLA, Chambers Student, and Legal Cheek! It is also very useful to read the practice area entries of the firm on Legal 500.I also found it useful to message current trainees on LinkedIn with any specific questions that I may have about the firm that only someone who is working there may know.Best of luck!</blockquote>
