The trainees behind the famously honest Twitter account run by leading City law firm RPC are doing a Q&A for an hour on Monday between 1-2pm.

@LifeInAFirm has wowed the legal social media scene with its frank tweets from behind the London corporate law frontlines.

Run by the firm’s 40 trainees — who all have a password to the account — @LifeInAFirm isn’t afraid to document the tougher aspects of corporate law.

At the same time, it also enjoys detailing the job’s glamorous side.

With RPC and other firms’ vacation scheme application deadline just round the corner, join @legalcheek and @LifeInAFirm at 1pm this coming Monday (the 25th) and ask your questions about the reality of City law — using the hashtag #LifeInALawFirm.
