I am an associate in the employment team of Farrer & Co. After training and qualifying at Herbert Smith Freehills (in their London office) I joined Farrer & Co when I was two years qualified. During my training, I was seconded to HSF\u2019s Paris office and to a client (each for a period of six months).<\/p>\n
Before starting law school, I studied English Literature at the University of York and spent a year as a nanny in Paris (for a family with eight children!). I didn\u2019t consider a career in law until towards the end of my time at university, so I didn\u2019t have much relevant experience. This meant I quickly learned how to use the skills I had to my advantage in applications, drawing them out to explain how they would help me excel in the legal profession.<\/p>\n
So much of succeeding in applications is about practice and knowing what firms are looking for. I am hoping that I can help Aspiring Solicitors cut through all the jargon, providing information and advice to those looking to pursue a career in law.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":24951,"template":"","acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
