My intern roles were a great way to spend the summer

Amy O’Brien enjoyed exploring the world of work in her two internships in Cork

    Amy O'Brien In the summer, I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to complete two different legal internships.

The experiences gave me a great insight into both the field of law and also the day-to-day experience of working in a law firm.

As internships and work experience are something that many college students now have to navigate, I wanted to share my experience from this summer.

I spent the month of June in Matheson LLP’s Cork offices at Penrose Dock. The office itself was really open and spacious, which really helped me settle into the routine of being in a law firm.

I worked as part of the Disputes and Investigations Group in Dublin, which was great practise for liaising online and collaborating remotely through Microsoft Teams.
