What's it really like to start your career at a law firm?
This year, we are opening our doors and showing you the real picture. No polished pitch, just an honest look at daily life at CMS Brussels, shared by the people who live it.
CMS Student Night is an exclusive evening for ambitious law students (Bachelor 3 and above) who want to explore a summer traineeship or a first position as a lawyer. Places are limited and participation is subject to selection. Selected candidates will receive a confirmation by Friday 6 November (Save the date nonetheless).
