.... programme, where trainees are provided with basic business and consulting skills and are exposed to a wide range of project work, including, for example, research on market trends, identifying issues and making recommendations for change. The learning curve can therefore be a very steep one. Graduates will spend most of their time working in teams of consultants at different levels in the firm, which is an excellent way to learn from more experienced colleagues.

Working hours in consulting can fluctuate wildly according to the work and the client. The industry itself is a constantly changing one, as client demands change over time. Each project demands different skills and different thought processes. .... Read the full Editorial

Current Business Area: MGS
Location: London

There were plenty of reasons for me to join Man. They're an industry leader, with a great reputation and they pay real attention to Corporate and Social Responsibility. It's a friendly, collegiate environment that's all about exchanging ideas and bouncing things around with others. I also like the exposure. Not just in the work I do, but also the access to senior people. The rotational nature of the scheme means you really understand the different parts of the business.

I started in late 2007 in Product Development and, since March, have been working with the Head of Business Management to look at how we run MGS from a commercial and operational point of view. As well as this, I'm reviewing our investment process and which hedge fund managers we use. It's a great way to see the business from end to end. .... Read the full Editorial

I presently sit within the Attorney General’s Office, which offers an enormous variety of work involving liaison with lawyers and policy advisors across Whitehall and beyond. My first two ‘seats’ were in the Immigration Public Law and Ministry of Defence Private Law teams.

One of the most striking and enticing things about being a legal trainee with the GLS is the amount of responsibility and variety of work you are given at an early stage. Trainees are expected to handle their own caseload from day one, albeit with the support of colleagues who are always willing to impart their own experience and offer guidance on case handling. ....

I arrive early in the office for my French lesson (normally I would arrive at 9.15). It’s a good way to start the week and engage my brain before heading upstairs to my desk. I am hoping to go on international secondment to our Paris office in my next seat, so it is useful to keep practicing.

10.00am
On arrival in my office I take a few minutes out to discuss the weekend’s activities with my supervisor before checking my e-mails for any developments or requests for work from members of the Banking department – where I’m currently sitting. I check the list of the work that I have to do in the week to focus my mind on what needs to be done and the priority of the tasks. .... Read the full Editorial
