    Our summer vacation scheme provides an excellent opportunity to gain a first-hand understanding of the day-to-day work of trainees in a US law firm. During the two-week programme, you will split your time between two practice groups and work alongside our partners, associates and current trainees. A comprehensive programme of interactive training sessions, mentoring and social activities will allow you to get to know our firm, clients and practices.

    Successful applicants will be invited to take our Akin bespoke strengths-based online assessment to be considered for an interview with the graduate recruitment team and an assessment day in our London office. Our interview style is a conversational and open process that provides insight into the work and culture at the firm.

    The summer scheme is open to penultimate-year law students, final-year students and graduates of any subject. Applications close on 7 January 2024 and are screened on a rolling-basis so we recommend you apply as early as possible!

    Our 2024 vacation scheme will run from 17 – 28 June 2024.
