[QUOTE="Matt_96, post: 38733, member: 1260"] For me the main thing I liked is in the sheer diversity of experiences you can encounter as a trainee. If you are applying to become a trainee in an accountancy firm you will likely be split into a stream that does audit, assurance or tax. I don't think there is a lot of scope for crossover - at the very least, that is what my friends in the business say. I think it is probably similar in banking or consulting. You go in and join the team for your 'thing'. And then you just keep doing it ad infinitum. In law firms, however, you can skip from doing a seat in something esoteric like aviation finance to one in something like product liability disputes, and depending on the firm, you could even end up doing more varied seats like private client or catastrophic injury claims, for instance. Those are wildly wildly different. The only thing they really have in common is that the persons practicing them are all (or mostly) solicitors. It really is perfect for people who want to have a really broad training experience.
