Our placement scheme will show you what
it's like to be a trainee at Jones Day and how our training
system works. You'll be given
real work and not just a diet of seminars, visits, presentations
and group exercises.
You'll receive work from trainees,
associates and partners and you'll be encouraged to introduce
yourself to lawyers in the firm with a view to experiencing
particular kinds of work that you think you might enjoy.
You'll also meet trainees, associates and partners at a
range of social events. We'll pay you £400 per week.
At the end of your two-week scheme, we want you to go away
with a real feeling of having been involved in the work
of a law firm and a clear picture of what being a Jones
Day lawyer will be like, how our training system works and
whether it is for you.
Do a placement scheme at Jones Day and you'll appreciate
the difference.
