Our &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.goodwinlaw.com/en/careers-pages/summer-program&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Summer Associate program&lt;/a&gt; bridges the gap between law school and working at a large law firm.&#160;Summer associates have the opportunity to work on challenging cases, learn new skills through formal training and network within our firm. Our &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.goodwinlaw.com/en/careers-pages/early-careers-in-the-united-kingdom&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;vacation scheme and trainee solicitor programmes&lt;/a&gt; focus on early career development in the United Kingdom, where participants can learn what it is like to train and work at a firm like Goodwin while building networks and gaining exposure to different practice areas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Learning and Professional Development&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Our &lt;a rel=&quot;noopener noreferrer&quot; href=&quot;https://www.goodwinlaw.com/en/careers-pages/learning-and-professional-development&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Learning and Professional Development team&lt;/a&gt; is committed to helping the members of our community maximize their potential, find professional fulfillment and disrupt hidden barriers to success. We design and implement research-backed learning and professional development programs that focus on efficiency, business skills, collaboration and much more.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;You@Goodwin&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;We offer an outstanding benefits package designed to help you balance your work and personal life. Our benefits platform – &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.goodwinlaw.com/en/careers-pages/benefits&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;You@Goodwin&lt;/a&gt; – is built upon the premise that well-being is about taking a holistic view of life and maximizing wellness in all sectors: work life, home life, financial well-being and community engagement.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pro Bono&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Propelled by the most pressing global crises and the Goodwin innovative spirit, our pro bono initiative champions the legal rights of those in need. Our lawyers support individual clients through life altering circumstances, including by assisting them to exercise housing rights, navigate immigration and criminal court matters, obtain identity affirming name and gender-marker changes, secure special education services, and obtain public and veterans’ benefits. This dedication to advancing equity extends to advising low-income small business owners operating in historically excluded and discriminated communities through our &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.goodwinlaw.com/en/about/neighborhood-business-initiative&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Neighborhood Business Initiative&lt;/a&gt;, and counseling nonprofits so they can advance missions relating to a wide range of social issues including voting rights, racial justice, education, healthcare, peace building and democracy, and the environment. Pro bono work is encouraged and considered a positive factor for advancement, and our pro bono docket is continually evolving in response to community needs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.goodwinlaw.com/en/about/pro-bono&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Learn more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Want to know more?&#160;&#160;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.goodwinlaw.com/news&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Read about Goodwin in the news!&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Questions?&#160; Email&#160;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:legalrecruiting@goodwinlaw.com.&#160;&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;legalrecruiting@goodwinlaw.com&lt;/em&gt;&lt;em&gt;.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
