Want to convert your Vacation Scheme into a Training Contract? Join our unique interactive series of workshops tailored to help AS members convert their vacation scheme(s) into a training contract. The programme is written and hosted by AS’ expert coaching team, consisting of former graduate recruitment managers, professional coaches and partners who will tell you how they made a positive impression, both personally and professionally, on their successful vacation schemes.
Crucially, these workshops have been adapted to incorporate insights from hundreds of AS Members who completed previous Headstart virtual schemes. Our advice therefore is catered specifically to the virtual assessment processes of law firms, including networking and best practice when it comes to technology.
