    In answering the question ‘tell us about a time you demonstrated commercial awareness’ is a good answer to talk about being runner-up in a commercial awareness article writing competition, or are they looking for a more real-world example? @Jessica Booker

    I am making one of my final applications however on the date that the interviews would be held if my application were to get through, I will be doing a vacation scheme. Is there any way around this? Should I email the firm and explain before sending my application or will the dates be non-negotiable
