updated on 15 September 2017
A number of law firms feature in work experience information provider RateMyPlacement’s recently revealed top 100 undergraduate employers for 2017.
The list is compiled from student-written reviews of organisations recruiting 20 or more students a year on work placements, vacation schemes, internships and insight days. The highest ranked law firm this year is Taylor Wessing, which took sixth position overall. The other firms to feature were:
- CMS Cameron McKenna Nabarro Olswang LLP (13th place);
- Baker McKenzie (14th);
- Allen & Overy (21st);
- Shoosmiths (23rd);
- Shearman & Sterling LLP (31st);
- Linklaters (36th);
- Hogan Lovells (41st);
- Simmons & Simmons LLP (53rd);
- Herbert Smith Freehills (54th); and
- RPC (57th)
Each firm was assessed on the amount of responsibility given to students, whether students felt valued by colleagues, impressions of the organisation overall, training and development opportunities, and the transferable skills that students gained during their placement.
