Welcome to Baker McKenzie’s Virtual Experience Program. Learn what it’s like to be a world-class lawyer at the first and truly global law firm.
We understand the pressures that law students face, particularly as representatives of our Clerkship and Graduate recruitment team both studied law and practised in the legal profession.
We understand the juggle (and sometimes struggle!) when it comes to balancing uni, work, extra-curricular activities, volunteer work, exchange programs and, for many penultimate students, the rite of passage that is applying for Clerkships. And we know how important it is to have good mental health throughout your studies and career.
We don’t want to add significantly more to your plates. Our program is therefore aimed at giving you a small taste test of life as a junior lawyer at Baker McKenzie.
