Students face heavy competition for vacation places as firms slash schemes

Not sure that some of you are being realistic about the business world. You have to remember that many law firms have made very talented, qualified lawyers redundant over the last 12 months and many are still worried for their jobs. It just does not sit well with this to then spend hundreds of thousands of pounds on vac schemes. It is as simple as that. Whilst law firms have a moral obligation to those entering the profession they have a higher and more concrete and credible obligation to those people already working in their firms to do what they can to ensure job security for those people who have dedicated their lives in the boom times to their employer and thos people have to come first.
