Had a 2 week work shadow experience at big firm when I was 15 (shadowed a relative and got to help a little, no formal internship or anything). I am now applying at the same firm, with 4.5 years of experience in similar roles.

To include the work shadow experience briefly on cv or not?

Sure, why wouldn’t you? Any point of connection with a prospective employer (or a prospective client, for that matter) is a differentiator, and if you can genuinely mention how it might have affected your career choice, all the better.

I would. Especially since it's at the same firm. Certainly can't hurt.

Don't know how relevant it is if you were literally 15 years old, but I suppose it may help. Hiring managers love context when sifting through resumes.

I would include it if I were in your shoes. It would be great for catching the eye of the recruiter, and you would likely become a top contender for them since you already have a connection to them and an idea on how it's like inside the company. Give it a go!
