What have been your career highlights?
I started my professional career at Hogan Lovells more than two years ago, specialising in Employment Law, providing legal advice to international companies and on court cases pertaining to Labour Law. In my first months at Hogan Lovells I was immediately impressed by the sense of camaraderie within the firm, receiving help from colleagues not only in my department but throughout the business.
In my first year, I had the opportunity to participate in an international networking event where I had the chance to meet colleagues from other offices. It was a great learning experience whilst providing a wonderful opportunity to network across the firm.
What is the level of responsibility that a new qualified lawyer is going to assume?
Taking on responsibility is essential to your professional development at Hogan Lovells. For this reason, from the beginning of our careers we are encouraged to provide solutions to our clients. Hogan Lovells' policy is to give lawyers as much responsibility as they can handle. In addition, each lawyer is allocated a mentor whose role is to help with integration and who supports us in our professional career.
