Reeba's story
“Having been met at the airport and driven in style to my luxury accommodation in central Singapore, I realised how meticulously this internship had been planned in order for me to derive the greatest learning benefit and enjoyment.
This continued on my first day at work where the Singapore office reciprocated the close care and attention which the London office had extended to me. They were conscious to help me maximise my learning and personal development opportunity by organising one-to-one training sessions, breakfast and lunch meetings during my first few days. This enabled me to build strong personal relationships and contacts within the firm.
Working in the context of large international transactions in the Banking & Finance department, I was involved in work conferring real responsibility, whether this was conducting significant legal research or drafting legal documents and clauses. Alongside this, there was a strong emphasis on broadening the scope of my learning, by organising a tour of the Supreme Court of Singapore, for example.
I felt that a helping hand was always available to me, on both a personal and professional level, which made the entire experience thoroughly enjoyable.”
