Early practice makes perfect...
If you want to succeed you need the opportunity to grow and develop. However, only the perfect environment ensures optimum growth. This applies to seeds as much as to personal and professional advancement. Gaining experience as an intern can be the first step to a career in the international law sector. We at CMS Reich-Rohrwig Hainz offer you the chance to obtain practical experience by partaking in a summer internship at CMS.
A career at CMS
Some of the law experts working for us today started out as CMS summer interns:

„I spent each of the four weeks of my internship at CMS in a different department and was thus able to get a good idea of the different areas of expertise and activities of a corporate law firm. Especially the negotiation training was very exciting and left a big impression, and I also remember the party that was organised for the interns and the nice colleagues.“
Martin Trapichler, associate, at CMS since 2007

„The internship at CMS gave me a first impression of the everyday work of a corporate lawyer. I wanted to form my own opinion of a big law firm. Six years later, I am still with CMS. And as one of the organisers, I am still involved in the summer internship programme. My own experiences help me understand the perspectives of our interns and offer an attractive programme to them.“
Clemens Grossmayer, senior attorney, at CMS since 2004 |

More than just tips and tricks
Our four-week internship offers valuable insights, practical experience working with clients and close cooperation with specialists. You will get to know different areas of expertise, draw up contractual documents, accompany our senior attorneys to court and work on your negotiations skills in role plays.
We offer you four weeks of challenging work in an international law firm, four weeks during which you will grow both on a professional and personal level. Four weeks that could be the start of your career.
Two kinds of summer internships offered
If your goal is to gain first practical experiences in an international law firm, we will offer you insight into different areas of legal expertise. You will take over simple legal tasks, accompany our lawyers to court and discuss solutions for legal problems with them.
If you already have some experience working in a law firm and know your preferred area of expertise, we offer you the opportunity to intensively work in a particular department for one month.
Requirements
You should be close to the end of your studies or have already finished your university education.
