    DLA Piper Application

    No I haven't. To be honest, I'm getting a bit concerned about the number of people who on Linkedin have already secured a place on the 2020 summer internship but surely they won't have filled all their places a month before the deadline?

    Pinsent Masons Application 2019/20

    Herbert Smith Freehills App

    Hi, Herbert Smith Freehills doesn't seem to have any word limits on its work experience section. I was wondering how many words roughly I should write? For example, I know that Clifford Chance wants as much detail as you can give whereas Hogan Lovells wants really succinct answers, any advice...

    'Where else have you applied and why?' Interview Question

    When answering this question, is it best to focus on specialisms of the firm, for example Hogan Lovell's strength in Litigation? Should I also focus on broader points such as its strength and depth in both the US and Europe to compare and contrast to other firms I have applied to?

In all reality, it was because I was not entirely sure what firms I wanted to...

    Day spent at a firm-why that firm?

    Hi, I recently spent a day of informal work experience at Addleshaw Goddard, one of the firms I'm applying to but I am struggling to incorporate my experience into my 'why AG?' answer.
