Stephenson Harwood: They take on 20 trainee solicitors per year. As a trainee solicitor you can look forward to quality global work across a range of sectors, a respectful, friendly culture, and the chance to prove yourself on an international secondment. They work in small teams, so every person is critical. You could also spend time on secondment at a client’s office, absorbing a totally different business culture first-hand. They also encourage trainees to apply to gain experience overseas in their Hong Kong, Singapore, Seoul, Dubai or Paris offices.
