City firms use short-term NQ contracts to inflate retention rates

Wow, I knew the HR people at law firms were among the most cynical in the world, but this takes the biscuit. Giving a young lawyer a few months as an associate then sacking them just so you can hide the truth about your inability to retain NQs is despicable. This is something the SRA needs to look into as it appears to be misleading the market, regulators and trainees who expect a real job, and is certainly against the spirit of the trainee system in this country.
