            assignments. At the program’s midpoint, they will have the opportunity

       I was heavily involved in a complex arbitration where I was able to work directly with one of our
       top Labor & Employment attorneys. We won that case. In retrospect, that work was
       instrumental in my development as an attorney. Every assignment I received as a summer
       associate provided a realistic experience of what it’s like to work as a first-year associate.
