Legal Cheek is coming to Manchester for the latest in its new series of in-person Secrets to Success events — in association with The University of Law (ULaw) — to help students boost their commercial awareness ahead of summer vacation schemes and training contract interviews.
The event takes place on Wednesday 29 June at ULaw Manchester, and features lawyers and graduate recruitment teams from Freshfields, Hill Dickinson, and Exchange Chambers, alongside a careers expert from ULaw.
The speakers will share their secrets to success, telling the stories of their career journeys, while advising students on how they can best position themselves to obtain training contracts with leading firms. Up for discussion will also be the key commercial awareness topics students need to have on their radar.
The speakers
• Neil Boynton, corporate associate in the global transactions practice at Freshfields
• Helen Evans, legal director in the real estate litigation team at Hill Dickinson
• Amie Boothman, commercial barrister at Exchange Chambers
• Katherine Meehan, student recruitment manager at ULaw
After the Question Time-style discussion, which will be chaired by a Legal Cheek journalist, there will be networking over drinks and canapés with the speakers, trainees and members of their graduate recruitment teams.
