Karriere secondment
I takt med at vårt marked stadig blir mer internasjonalt, øker kravene til oss for å imøtekomme våre klienters behov. Gjennom våre utvekslingsprogram får våre ansatte muligheten til å dele erfaringer på tvers av landegrenser og kompetanseområder. Dette bidrar til å skape gode relasjoner til kolleger i våre naboland, og på lang sikt gir det økt verdi for våre kunder.
Utveksling gir også opplevelser for livet og mulighet for personlig og faglig utvikling. Nye perspektiver på problemstillinger, bedre kulturforståelse og nye kolleger er bare noen av fordelene med internasjonal utveksling.
Vi oppfordrer ansatte til å søke på utveksling ved andre kontorer verden over. Vi tror at vår tilnærming til hospitering fremmer et globalt tankesett og støtter kunnskapsdeling slik at våre medarbeidere kan samarbeide på tvers av landegrensene.
Nordic secondment is a low-threshold exchange opportunity where our employees have the chance to swap office spaces with a Nordic colleague for a week. This is a unique opportunity to get to know Nordic colleagues, experience a different office culture, and engage with local practice groups. Employees work on their own cases during their stay and a social program is organized to facilitate getting to know colleagues from the visiting office and others participating in the exchange.
"To me, embodying the values of DLA Piper means embracing the multifaceted role of a global lawyer. The Nordic Secondment Week has been an enriching opportunity that gave me profound insights into what it truly means to be an international lawyer."
- Layal Sarhan, Assistant Attorney from Denmark
The exchange program FLASH is organized annually to provide our attorneys with the opportunity to network across borders and experience a different office culture. The program spans two weeks, with different DLA Piper offices hosting each year. In 2023, two of our employees participated in FLASH secondment in London and Brussels.
During the FLASH secondment, participants also meet colleagues from other countries involved in the exchange program. There are numerous social activities planned, allowing for the opportunity to make connections across borders.
"I was really looking forward to putting faces to the people I've already collaborated with digitally, and to learn about the work culture in other countries. The program has been very social with shared lunches and dinners, and we've experienced several of the usual tourist attractions such as the London Eye and boat tours."

"To go on exchange through the DLA Piper system is a unique opportunity, and I strongly recommend others to apply for exchange programs like this. It's very nice to get to know our colleagues outside of Norway, and it makes collaboration between offices much easier when you already know each other."
