Herbert Smith Internship Opportunities
Herbert Smith is committed to recruiting the most ambitious and high-achieving graduates from a multitude of backgrounds. With that in mind we have worked to build links with top universities in Australia to be able to offer the opportunity for several law students to work in our London office.
We are offering up to six students the opportunity to attend a four week internship at our London office in November/December 2011. Students are encouraged to apply in their penultimate year of study at an Australian university.
Applications for our 2011 Australian internship will open on 14 February and close on 31 March 2011. We will interview selected candidates in Australia during April 2011.
An internship is a great introduction to being a trainee at Herbert Smith. During the placement you will sit in the same room as a partner or senior associate and be given real work for real clients. You will also be involved in workshops and presentations that provide an insight into the breadth of practice areas in the firm. We will fund your flights to and from the UK, help organise your working visa and accommodation and also pay you a salary of £350 at the end of each week of the internship.
We will arrange formal and informal social events for you to meet other students on the Australian internship and on our two week winter vacation scheme as well as partners, associates and trainees. By the end of the scheme you will have a good idea of whether a career in law at an international law firm is right for you - and whether that career might be at Herbert Smith.
