Farrer & Co: does its vacation scheme sponsor a UK visa?

NoVacation Scheme

No. Farrer & Co does not sponsor its vacation scheme for international students who need a visa. The firm runs one spring and two summer two-week vacation schemes a year, ten places each, with a published weekly salary. Its own FAQ states plainly that vacation scheme applicants are not sponsored, only training contract candidates. The published key dates on this page also refer to a cycle whose deadline had already passed as of this review.
