Eversheds Vacation Schemes and Open Days

Vacation Schemes

Eversheds run vacation schemes in Easter and summer for all graduate or undergraduate.

You apply online between 1 October 2007 and 31 January 2008. You will then have to take two ability tests during which the firm screen you against set criteria.

If you are shortlisted, you will be invited to Eversheds' offices for an interview with one of the firm's partners.

Vacation schemes involve up to twelve interns spending two weeks with Eversheds. During this time interns will spend a week in two different departments. Interns are paid £240 (london) per week and work closely with Trainees, Solicitors and Partners on live client work.

Interns are given a trainee buddy who will look after them throughout their time at Eversheds and also a supervisor who will give them work, assist them on the work they will be doing and give them any information they may need.

There will be opportunities to go to court, assist with research, draft documents and send letters to clients. A series of informal talks are arranged to give a deeper understanding of each practice group and the people within as well as getting chance to socialise with people from all areas and levels of the firm.

Applications

Applications from both law and non-law students are welcomed from penultimate and final years as well as those already doing their GDL or LPC.
