30 new graduates for Drivers Jonas UK offices
30 new graduates started work this week at Drivers Jonas LLP's UK offices. Selected from over 1000 applications, the new arrivals represent a mix of undergraduates and postgraduates from universities including Reading, Oxford Brookes and Sheffield Hallam. They join in various disciplines including general practice, building surveying/project management and planning.
Nick Shepherd, managing partner, welcomed the new starters to DJ this week and commented: "Our graduates are the foundations for the future of Drivers Jonas, and it's a pleasure to welcome 30 on board in 2008. We will encourage each of them to carve out their own niches as they develop their careers with the firm. Many of our partners started as DJ graduates, and I hope we have the same success rate with this year's intake."
