International law firm Reed Smith has been shortlisted for the Best Trainer – Large City Firm award at the LawCareers.net Training and Recruitment Awards 2013.

The awards, based on a large survey of trainees and newly qualified associates, aim to recognise the best recruiters and trainers among law firms.

This year’s awards ceremony will take place on the 16 May.

The firm has also been included in the Guardian UK 300 most popular graduate employers list for the second year running. The Guardian UK 300 is compiled by an annual survey of over 25,000 students across 100 universities and is the largest survey of its kind.

This year’s top 300 list will be published later this month.
