HKG - Winter Vacation Scheme 2019

Description

A vacation scheme is the perfect way to learn about working at Clifford Chance and meet our people. We recruit students that we believe have the potential and ambition to join us once their degrees are completed. The Vacation Scheme allows you to follow the life of a lawyer at Clifford Chance closely - you will sit in two different practice areas, working with our lawyers on real, live client projects. You will be treated as a part of our team and givenopportunities to demonstrate your ability. To ensure you get the most from your scheme we will assign you a mentor, an experienced lawyer one or two years ahead of you who will help you settle in and answer any questions you have. Across the four week scheme we will also host sessions from professionals across the firm to give you a real insight into how our firm works. In 2019 our Winter Vacation Scheme will begin on Monday 7 January until Friday 1 February.
