  • A & O first law firm to support government plans to boost internships

  • 06th April 2011
  • Allen & Overy is the first law firm to endorse Nick Clegg’s recently announced ‘business compact’ on social mobility.

  • The aim of the initiative is to make internships more accessible to students, with both PriceWaterHouseCoopers and KPMG already having signed up to the scheme. It’s a bold and admiral aim, although the document (feel free to take a look here) appears to be a little top heavy on rhetoric and somewhat lacking in clear action.

    Nonetheless, highlighting the issue is definitely a step in the right direction. Whether it is something that the government can stop though is yet to the decided, but really the onus for getting work experience should be on you so and never before has work experience been so important as it is right now - so the AllAboutCareers.com National Work Experience Campaign Fact Sheet has been made to make life easier.
