Bump. Never seen this internship before and the description differentiates it from the vacation scheme. Does this mean undergrads of from any year can apply (IINW vac schemes are only open to penultimate year law students)?

Pretty sure it's a vacation scheme in all but name. Eg Sidley's is also called a "summer internship" but it's effectively a vac scheme since it leads to a TC.

I think there was a brief period a few years ago when Links had Sg vac schemes but the past couple of years it's generally only hired trainees who are freshly Sg qualified. Must be a new program.

Any idea why the drop to band 3 in latest rankings? Thought baker corp was at least better than rodyk/SLB/drew but doesn't seem like it...

If so, you should stop being friends and tainting yourself with people from third rate firms.

No one can answer this question lol. But if you stick around in a big firm long enough you can get there
