Carter Jonas is a highly reputable company not only for their professional services but for the support that is given to graduates to push on in their career. I have had exposure to a wide variety of rural professional work and have benefitted from the expertise of senior staff in the Bangor office when dealing with challenging work. I would recommend Carter Jonas to any rural professional graduate.

Throughout my APC training I always felt I had as much support as I needed. At Carter Jonas it is definitely the case that you get as much as you put in, colleagues offered help when reviewing my submission document as well as offering their own time to provide mock exams. Having passed my APC I am now looking forward to moving on with my career and moving on and up through the firm.
