Clifford Chance's Upcoming Events

Clifford Chance’s virtual offering has been greatly enhanced through the firm’s Events Hub. Since the 1^st September, Clifford Chance has delivered online panels, skills sessions and a conference to give potential candidates an unparalleled insight into the firm.

The firm’s One Young World Caucus: How to Make a Difference was a particular highlight, where attendees were inspired by other students who had set-up wonderful societies or initiatives that really had made a difference. Attendees heard from Clifford Chance’s LGBT+ and Impactful Social Action Winners and the event left many feeling empowered that they also could make a difference.

There are still many events to come between now and the 4^th December with applications still open for these. Some standouts include:

• Together We Are Series: Resilience: A session to hear from Clifford Chance trainees about the pressures and demands of their current working environment. They will share practical tips on how best to cope with adapting to change, particularly to the new virtual world we live in.
• Views from the firm’s Pro Bono Team: Clifford Chance is particularly committed to its pro bono work with an annual target of helping 100,000 people a year.
