    Why complete this job simulation

    A risk-free way to experience work on the job with us at Ashurst. Practice your skills with example tasks and build your confidence to ace your applications.
    Self-paced4-5 hoursNo gradesNo assessmentsIntermediate

    This job simulation will give you an insight into the type of work done by Ashurst's Intellectual Property and Competition Law teams. In this job simulation you will be introduced to the concepts of patents and copyright in the context of a commercial joint venture, before focusing on a specific issue that arises regularly in the real world: when partners work together to produce new technology, who owns the resulting intellectual property?

    You will also be introduced to the Competition Law practice and the concept of an unannounced dawn raid by the UK Competition and Markets Authority (CMA). In particular, it focuses on search warrants, shadowing CMA investigators during a raid and privilege claims available to the client in relation to the documents which are the subject of the CMA investigation.
