Summer Associates From Across Our U.S. Offices Share Their Experience

We asked the White & Case Summer Associate Class of 2025 for their thoughts on the recruitment process and the ten-week Summer Program. Here's their candid feedback on the professional highs, personal growth, and highlights of the White & Case Summer Program.

On the recruitment process…

"A standout moment from my interview process was realizing how genuine and approachable everyone I met was. From networking events to interviews, everyone at White & Case has been easy to talk to and connect with, which made the entire experience feel enjoyable and comfortable."

"I'm excited to join a team that has consistently been one of the kindest and most supportive groups of people I've ever encountered. Everyone I've met at White & Case so far has been incredibly welcoming, and I look forward to contributing positively to such a dynamic and collaborative environment."

"The callback interview really felt more like a dialogue or a conversation as opposed to a test or self-pitch. My interviewers were genuinely interested in getting to know me as a comprehensive human being rather than another candidate on paper, and were enthusiastic of the unique experience that I brought to the table."

"I knew I wanted to join White & Case when I saw how much they truly cared about me during the recruitment process. The recruitment team and attorneys were always checking in, always available to answer questions, and truly made me feel wanted and valued."

On returning as a 2L…

"There is no doubt in my mind that I wanted to join White & Case after spending my first summer at White & Case in Houston last summer. Everyone at the Houston office was so helpful, intelligent and friendly, enabling me to take on far more substantiative projects than I would have ever thought a 1L summer could experience. Meshing so easily with the associates and partners in and out of the office made joining again for 2L summer a no-brainer."

On looking ahead to joining White & Case…

"I'm excited to learn from seasoned attorneys, tackle complex transactions and perhaps discover some hidden food gems with colleagues during lunch breaks."

"Working alongside attorneys and professionals from across the globe is an incredible and unique opportunity."

"I knew I wanted to join White & Case when I recognized its truly global presence and the unique opportunity to work on complex cross-border matters. Engaging in such transactions not only enhances professional growth by navigating diverse regulatory frameworks but deepens my understanding of cultural and market dynamics on a global scale."

"I'm excited to collaborate with colleagues from diverse backgrounds on high-stakes deals, solving unique challenges in a fast-paced and dynamic environment."
