The Herbert Smith Freehills Networked Scholarship scheme was launched by the firm in 2010. It provides five students per year with a five year programme of support, including insight days, mentoring, skills training, an internship and a financial bursary. The scheme has been designed to help develop future business leaders. This support students to enter careers not just in law but also other roles in the modern business services sector, e.g. IT, finance, human resources, marketing, etc.
HSF will be coming in to school to launch their programme in an assembly - usually in November/December. The application process will be explained then.
