Kaan Yargici is a Software Quality Consultant based in London and has been with Linklaters since 1997. He has been particularly impressed by the firm’s technological advance.

"Even back in 1997, when I first joined the firm as part of their telephone support team, Linklaters were trying to achieve technological goals that were still far from becoming commonplace. In other words, Linklaters had – and still has – an exceptionally forward-looking vision for technology.

"That makes for a dynamic and stimulating environment. Because we work on a global basis, I will often find myself coordinating projects that draw on the skills of developers off-shore, colleagues in a different city, specialists in my own office, and end users in another country – all at once. Crucially, however, Linklaters has both the infrastructure and collaborative culture to make sure that such projects are a success.

"Throughout my career at Linklaters opportunities to travel have meant getting to know people in all parts of the firm, in many different parts of the world. Even though with each office the local cultures are different, the atmosphere is always friendly and welcoming, leading to the feeling of being one team and part of the same effort. Our work is never taken for granted, and while the demands of the firm are often high, the business really supports us."
