5 A FEW OF OUR OUTSTANDING TRAINEES WORK ALICE TSE TRAINEE 2015 If you are looking for a fun, stimulating and rewarding workplace environment with top-level training, then look no further than Sidley. ALICE TSE 4

6 JENNY CHAN ASSOCIATE/ TRAINEE 2014 WORK. If you are the type of person who takes challenges head on, you will thrive at Sidley. I was involved in a number of significant matters throughout my training and was trusted to directly interact with clients on many occasions. These opportunities improved my technical knowledge and provided me with the necessary soft skills to become a successful solicitor. I have been particularly impressed with the quality and variety of work made available to me at Sidley. You would be surprised at the responsibilities and client-facing opportunities you are given. JEFFREY LEE TRAINING. Learning on the job is an integral part of our training. Our Hong Kong office is big enough to accommodate a wide range of deals, yet our trainee-to-partner ratio is small enough for us to ask questions and for them to provide guidance. DEVELOPMENT. I was given ample opportunities to work on complex transactions that helped me develop my technical skills. On top of that, I was encouraged to initiate diversity and networking events that helped shape the culture of the firm. Such positive reinforcement is crucial to my professional development, as it motivates me to go the extra mile every day. JEFFREY LEE ASSOCIATE/ TRAINEE

7 I was offered invaluable learning opportunities to develop as a transactional lawyer and participated in various corporate issues, ranging from IPOs, public takeovers, mergers and acquisitions, and joint ventures to different fundraising deals. JANICE LAM TRAINING JANICE LAM ASSOCIATE/ TRAINEE 2011 WORK. Right from the start, I was involved with a broad range of IPO, M&A and legal compliance matters. This immersive experience was extremely valuable, as it gave me direct exposure to clients in a challenging work environment. Ultimately, it forced me to quickly adapt to my surroundings and develop my skill set as a first-year trainee. DEANNA LIU TRAINEE 2015 TRAINING. The firm provides supplemental training seminars covering issues that lawyers often encounter in everyday practice. Trainees also benefit from the steady stream of updates and guidance on recent legal developments in Hong Kong and abroad. DEVELOPMENT. Sidley consistently invests in the development of its interns and trainees. The firm s seat rotation structure allows junior practitioners to gain hands-on experience in more than one practice area, thus fostering a comprehensive approach to professional growth and development. 6

8 WORK. Sidley s international platform gives trainees opportunities to work on high-profile, multinational deals with colleagues worldwide. From leading client meetings to drafting complex legal advice, I was entrusted with a high level of responsibility from day one. The firm s commitment to providing precise and client-centered solutions has not only enhanced my analytical ability, but also raised my commercial awareness across various sectors. SUNNY TO TRAINEE 2015 TRAINING. Sidley offers a comprehensive training program for young professionals. In addition to our regular, on-thejob obligations, we attended practical training sessions on presentation techniques and public speaking. The firm also has a genuine open-door policy, and senior lawyers are always eager to answer any questions. DEVELOPMENT. For the first six months of my training contract, I worked directly with a partner from the Energy Mergers and Acquisitions group, receiving detailed feedback on all of my projects. I also observed how an experienced partner manages and interacts with clients on a daily basis, which are skills that I will need to develop in order to become an exceptional lawyer. DEVELOPMENT 7

9 My secondment to the London office was a rewarding experience, as I was able to participate in a variety of transactions in another jurisdiction. The new working environment, hands-on training and collegial culture made the secondment a meaningful part of my contract. TIFFANY FUNG TIFFANY FUNG TRAINEE 2015 Seconded to London office STEPHEN KENNEDY LONDON TRAINEE 2014 Seconded to Hong Kong office I spent six months on secondment to the Investment Funds and Banking teams in Hong Kong, which added an additional dimension to my training contract. It allowed me to adapt to a new style of work in an exciting and fastpaced environment. STEPHEN KENNEDY 8
