Hi Alice!


Thank you so much for your answers on this forum, they've been so helpful!


I attended a couple of Freshfields Focus Events earlier this year during which the graduate recruitment team really emphasised that we should "show not tell" on our applications. I was wondering if you had any advice on how to best to do that? I am currently working on my personal statement and I often feel the need to say: "I have strong x skills which I have developed through x experience during which I did x." I'm worried that it's too much 'telling" especially because I'm struggling with the word count right now but I'm also not sure how else to demonstrate relevant skills.


Our company is called, "The Corporate ___ Academy". What is the missing word here?
