I really enjoyed the manner in which this simulation was structured, where I was able to be a part of the team responding and completing the necessary tasks to advance the JVA. Being able to compare my answers to that of the model answers was extremely helpful. They operated as a means of correction and a handy visible structure of how such responses ought to look.

I thorougly enjoyed the practicality of the job simulation. I found it insightful to experience in real-time what it means to work in an international law firm and how direct and effective they expect feedback to be in negotiations. The time suggestions provided for each task were also very useful in understanding the importance of time management.

The Virtual Experience at Norton Rose Fulbright was both engaging and insightful. The practical, task-based learning allowed me to experience the firm's approach to complex legal issues firsthand. This opportunity furthered my interest in applying for the Vacation Scheme and explore a career with NRF."
