"Please use this space for additional information about your undergraduate degree"
Hi all, I was wondering what do people usually put on the section titled: "Please use this space for additional information about your undergraduate degree.” In my most recent app I have described what I did for my 3rd year project and my current 4th year MSci, highlighting the relevant skills...- James Kitching

Why You?
Don’t be worried about the value you can add during a vac scheme, as ultimately your end goal is a TC and a (potential) career there. Future thinking is a requirement. You are correct when you say about highlighting your skills and desire to pursue a particular area of law. For me, my personal...- James Kitching

Common mistakes on application forms.....
Hi guys, when mentioning The Big Four in an application, would it be correct to write it as The Big Four or ‘The Big Four’? I am stumped!- James Kitching

Query about: Big Tech Regulation - US Government Sues Google
For future people reading this thread, the FT headline today makes for an interesting (albeit slightly speculative) development on this situation. Specifically, it addresses how Apple are suggesting their own search results in light of the Google antitrust situation and may be using its enormous...- James Kitching

Query about: Big Tech Regulation - US Government Sues Google
Okay, that first part makes good sense, thank-you! I'm really interested in your latter statement, is there any chance you could super simply elaborate? Sorry if that's a big ask, can't tame the curiosity!- James Kitching

Query about: Big Tech Regulation - US Government Sues Google
Hi all, So I've read a couple of times today about the US government going after Google for its staggering dominance over the search engine market. It is my belief that the anti-competitive laws in place exist to protect consumers etc, but in what way is Google having such a dominance a bad...- James Kitching

why do you actually want to work in commercial law? (honest)
As someone doing their MSci in Biochemistry, the reason why I want to pursue commercial law is because it offers me the opportunity to escape the claustrophobic science bubble and enter the world of business without committing to one particular sector. In addition, the legal industry itself is...- James Kitching

Hearing Back from Law Firms, Assessment Centres & Interview Tips - 2019 - 2020
Genuine curiosity, but I have to ask... For those who will be moving to London for the first time, to what extent do you guys consider potential future friendship group when looking at firms?
