I am about to commence a training contract at a City law firm but my aim is to get into private equity a few years down the line. What can I do to increase my chances?
You often hear that the transition is possible, but I have yet to find many specific ways to do so. Might I have to change roles completely (to, say, strategy consulting or investment banking) or should I aim for a secondment to a private equity firm and then aim to transfer to an in-house legal position after a few years’ post-qualification experience in corporate?
