    For this question: What are your motivations for wanting to pursue a career as a Solicitor at DWF? (250 words) Do I need to split my answer equally between why commercial law and then why DWF? Or say why DWF only? Any help is appreciated!

    For the Womble Bond Dickinson application, the work experience section gives 250 words per experience for details. Do I need to link back to the firm and say how the skills will help me as a trainee or just say what skills I learnt?
