Not only are you challenged intellectually every day, but from the very beginning you are fully immersed into a team of hardworking, helpful and friendly individuals who encourage and nurture your professional and personal growth. One of the best things about the student programme here at RL is the fact that you work on real client work from your first day, which although daunting at first, really helps you to learn and take pride in your work.
