My FIRST DAY in the office | Day in the Life as a Trainee Lawyer in London | Commercial Law

- My first visit to the office since starting as a trainee solicitor as my firm - of course I had to take you all along with me! I was weirdly excited for this - working from home is great, but starting a new job from home was tough. I was super motivated when working in the office too, so will probably be making more trips in the future 🤟🏽
Watching @RanveerKaur 's video where she went back to the office was actually what initially made me feel a type of way about the office, and inspired me to trek into London too. You can check out her two back to office vlogs here:

I love when she said "it's not everyday you get to feel like Jessica Pearson"
LMAOOO it's facts though! thanks for watching xx
"the ultimate, hidden truth of the world is that it is something that we make, and could just as easily make differently"
I think about this quote alot
I’m an aspiring lawyer, watching this is so good. Thank you ☺️
I'm a student actuary in university, and I have to say it was inspiring seeing you with Ranveer hence seeing these powerful professions together😊
Love this vlog!!! Soo nice seeing corporate vlogs from girls!! Office looks amazing too🤩🤩
Thanks love 🥺
love how ur vlog is casual but the content is of a formal one. keep these vlogs coming 😁
Such an insightful comment, thank you so much!!
I love your Chanel and wanted to say your work is important to many brown and black girls in UK. I have introduced your Chanel to my niece who is currently studying really hard for her GCSE's, she is an aspiring solicitor. Your content shows to her that her dreams are valid and at her reach. She is currently thinking about getting work experience. What would you advise her regarding getting a job/experience at her age? How should she start? Please advise? Thank you 🤩😍
Really enjoyed this vlog! Would like more videos similar to this and congrats on being a trainee 💕
thank you so much - definitely noted ❤️
I love this content! I am was wondering if you represent clients in court with your work hence, is your role litigation or transaction? I am currently interested in becoming a corporate lawyer. Thanks!
Thank you!! The seat I was in when I filmed this video had elements of both litigation and transaction which was really cool. I never got to represent clients in court, but I did attend a mediation once which was cool!
Honestly another banger of a video! I love this type of content and I can’t wait for more!! 🥰
omg thank you!!! more to come!! ❤️
Loved this video Simran!
Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️
I’m starting my TC very soon. I’m shocked to see you wearing sneakers to work. Is that normal?
Edit: Just got to the part of the video where you said it was casual Friday. 🙂
Interesting video. Liked it alot 🙂 good that you get your own office as a trainee solicitor.

Excellent video Simran! Please post more i been wondering where you been! I hope everything is okay, thank you!
Aw thank you so much!! I'm ngl when the sun came out, i was just outsiiiiiide, but hoping to find that balance between youtubing and social life! hope all is well with you too - thanks for watching ❤️
Hii I love this video, I'm currently a student at university studying Law, I was wondering which sector of law you yourself will be going into in the future, I am pationate about a career in law, however I believe in a good work life balance and was wondering if you had any advice on which sector of law would best allow this thank you so much xx
It depends on what you enjoy. I am also looking to have a career in law (currently a second year student) and have decided to go into family law, just because is what i enjoy the most and feel most passionate about. Go with what you enjoy, because you don’t want to work a job you dont enjoy! Whatever module you enjoy the most, go with it, you probably wont make up your mind until the end of your studies, but just distinguish what you like from what you don’t. Hope this helps :)
Love the new Vlogs, we need more! ❤️
thank you!! noted ❤️
I love this vlog, a realistic insight 🥰😊
omg thank you!! you're the best Idil. Thank you for always supporting my videos :)
I am indian lawyer I want to practice in London any vacancy?
Nope, none whatsoever
Have you taken the COVID vaccine?
Not yet, was trying to find a spot for ages but now it's open for 24 year olds I've got my first one booked very soon! Before we go into the office, we have to do lateral flow tests and I was testing myself regularly.
@@simranjeetkmann Do they require the vaccine?
@@drivethrutours1916 Not at the moment no - it's just ensuring you feel well on the day, you sanitise your hands regularly, wear face masks and take the lateral flow test :)
Is it easy for an Indian to become a lawyer in the UK??
I really want to become a lawyer abroad, but I'm sceptical thinking that I won't have much opportunities.
Same rebecca....u r from which state ?
@@fahmee5678Bangalore, Karnataka 😊
14% of English solicitors are Asian compared with the fact they comprise about 6% of the population but I have no idea about those applying from abroad. They tend to work harder at school than us lazier non Asians I suppose. Good luck.
Stay in India and stop stealing our jobs.
Is it okay if you disclose what law firm this is?
Hi there did you do any work experience in sixth form ?
I did a week in a high street solicitor's office around Year 10 of school, and then did a school leavers week at Pinsent Masons after Year 13
how do i know if law is the career for me?
Which college did you go to ?
what A levels did you study
English Literature, History & Biology :)
Can u become a lecturer or a course Connor after or while studying law
Can u please tell me if u did ur LLB in UK ??
Superb
Thanks!
Manicures ARE THE ONE! I do my mascara on the train too lmao. Also can't believe you work so close to Ranveer lol and crazy how empty it is!!
hahahah glad you agree! omg yeahhh it's so nice being neighbours LOL xx
loved ittttt ❤️ funny bc when you showed the office I thought "it's giving very much Suits vibes" and you talked about Jessica Pearson ahah. I had one question : when you do your to-do list, are you allowed to do it on online organisation tools like Notions or Google Drive/Calendar?
thank you so much!! I'm old fashioned, I hand write my to do lists, because I like crossing it out by hand LOL. I also write a new to-do list per day :) I also really like Ciara's to-do list idea on outlook re colour coding. I want to do that for my calendar - so having my holidays are in purple, team meetings in yellow or something LOL.
@Ciara ohhh okay, yes it is helpful thank you!!!
where did you study law ? i mean which university ?
Uni of Bristol :)
Bring back the GATB, intelligent test ,
Is there any future after do llm in uk
what are the policies when it comes to piercings? i currently have a nose piercing and i'm worried about whether or not i have to take it out to look the part of a "lawyer" once i start my TC
I’ve met lawyers with piercings and tattoos, I’d like to think the profession is more open to these. When we think about it, what does a lawyer even look like? It’s subjective - don’t let you having a nose piercing put u off. I’d like to think firms care more about your competency rather than appearance
My child asked for feedback after a rejection - tongue stud was the reason. Took it straight out. Now fully qualified London lawyer. I would say ditch the piercings although it may just depend on the firm.
If you’re asking about it then you already know the answer. Did you have the piercings in when you did the interview for your TC? If not, then take it out.
Will I need math to study law in UK (undergraduate)
I've not had to use complicated maths yet, only adding, subtracting, percentage changes here and there. So simple maths stuff - which suits me, because I suck at maths!!
Hi there, this video is so useful! What university did you go to?
Never mind, just saw your other video, Bristol’s one of my dream universities :)
Subscribed 😍
Do get paid for this intern I will love to do this immediately I graduate from school
If you apply for a vacation scheme at the firm, this is usually a paid experience.
Kya aap visa me help krte o
Sorry, I do not specialise in that area of law, and I have not qualified as a solicitor so am unable to provide legal advice. I would recommend you speak to an immigration solicitor.
are u an barrister?
nope, a trainee solicitor!
Wow I didn’t know they hired children for lawyers in the UK they sure start you young lol
How old do you think I am Sandra 😂😂😂😂
