“Since all good things come in threes, I will describe the internship at YPOG in just this number of words.
First of all: from the very first second, we were all impressed by the open, relaxed and welcoming atmosphere at YPOG. It's easy to proclaim a “first-name terms culture” - but at YPOG this is really lived out in everyday life! In terms of content, there were exciting insights into all aspects of current client work. Interdisciplinary presentations on topics ranging from legal tech to M&A ensured that participants were able to look beyond their own (legal) horizons. There was no shortage of personal touches either, whether on a small scale over lunch together or in light-hearted conversations in the corridor, or on a larger scale at evening events.
Throughout the weeks, we were able to experience what it's like to be a YPOGee.
‘A great time!’”

Oskar Kaiser (rYsing Star 2024)

“I wouldn't want to miss my time at YPOG! Thanks to the open and friendly atmosphere in the office and the close interaction within the team, I felt very comfortable and well-integrated right from the start. I was particularly surprised by how much time everyone - from the WiMi to the partner - took to answer my questions and make it easier for me to familiarize myself with new subject areas. This enabled me to learn a lot and gain completely new insights without feeling like a burden.
Another positive aspect of the four-week internship program was the variety of daily activities, including lectures and events, which allowed me to engage with a wide range of specialized areas.”

Jolina Unterspann (rYsing Star 2024)

"My expectations of the “rYsing Stars” program at a renowned corporate law firm in Hamburg were high. YPOG was able to exceed them. The attractive internship program was characterized by daily lectures and workshops as well as cross-location team-building events. The friendly team made it easy to integrate into the diverse range of activities, making the internship an educational and recommendable experience. I always felt like an integral part of the team and was quickly able to immerse myself in the varied day-to-day work thanks to the intensive support and interaction at eye level."
