#89: Let's Get Personal with Victoria Jepson, Global Government Enforcement Attorney at Trafigura
If you're interested in regulatory enforcement actions, are wondering what a monitorship really entails, or have ever wanted to take your legal practice abroad, this episode is for you! Episode 89 features Victoria Jepson--Global Government Enforcement Attorney at Trafigura in Geneva, Switzerland. We chat with Victoria about transferring law schools just before her 2L year and how she navigated the job market while making that transition. She shares how an opportunity to practice law in London led to her becoming qualified to practice law in the UK and to work for a number of multinational companies in both the regulatory and litigation spaces. And she gives us deep insights into what it's like to help a company that has been put under a court monitorship. Victoria is also one of our dear friends and gives fantastic advice about navigating job changes and making the most of each opportunity as it comes your way. Don't miss this one!
