Deciding where to start your career is a big decision.
Balance real work with training and networking on our schemes to see what your career at Dentons could look like.
Our Summer vacation scheme will give you, and us, an insight into whether we're a good match.
By attending our Vacation Scheme, you'll automatically be assessed for our Trainee Solicitor Programme.
This could be the start of something much bigger.
Candidates will have the option to complete the scheme in one of our Middle East offices including Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Muscat, Doha, Jordan and KSA.
Exact office location will be subject to business needs and confirmed with participants prior to start.

Innovation Here at Dentons, innovation isn't something that sits in isolation – we believe it comes from everywhere and from everyone, and it is critical to our position as the world's largest global law firm.
We do this by challenging ourselves to identify and implement innovation across all areas of service delivery to our clients.
We have created a highly bespoke programme for our trainees, to enhance their knowledge around legal innovation and digital transformation.
At every seat rotation, each trainee will undertake an innovation project, and with the help of their designated Innovation Training Scheme supervisor, and Innovation team, will create a project based on one of the following categories: AI (Machine Learning), Document Automation, Design Thinking, RPA (Robotic Process Automation), Data Visualization or a Business Case.
These projects, not only help to broaden trainees' understanding of legal innovation, but also help us to identify and address innovation gaps within the firm.
