Welcome to the next episode in our trainee mini-series, where Ashurst's trainees and junior associates share the influences and factors that have guided them in their careers in commercial law.
In this episode of our trainee miniseries, Junior Associates Aoife Weir and Divya Deivanayagam share their enriching experiences of international and client trainee secondments. Aoife and Divya explain the secondment process from their respective secondments, with Aoife working at BP in the gas and low carbon energy team, and Divya experiencing life in Ashurst’s Tokyo office. They discuss the application process, the support they received from Ashurst, and how these opportunities enhanced their professional growth.
Divya provides a glimpse into her international secondment in Tokyo, highlighting the cultural differences, increased responsibilities, and the logistical support provided by Ashurst, making the transition smooth and enriching. While Aoife recounts her client secondment at BP, and the development of her commercial awareness, the valuable relationships she built within the organisation, and the importance of timing and clarity of intent when applying for secondments.
"Timing is everything. If you know where you want to qualify and a secondment opportunity comes up, I would just say go for it. It's one of the best experiences I've taken on professionally to date." Aoife Weir.
