thank you! would this be like, for example, "in my role as brand ambassador at ABC firm, I organised XYZ event, which had over 30 attendees"?
Yes that kind of detail. Did you meet/exceed your targets as a campus ambassador? Did you come up with any creative ideas to promote the organisation. You don’t have to tell me what a campus ambassador does, but I want to hear what you personally achieved or what wouldn’t have happened if you hadn’t been in the role

Does anyone know if there is a list indicating which GDL/LPC providers that each law firm send their trainees to?
Don’t think there is one - mainly where it doesn’t matter where you study if you do choose to self fund, you won’t be excluded from applying to/getting hired from the firms that use an alternative provider to you.

Can I mention the name of the firm I am brand ambassador for in a answer to an application question for a different firm? Or should I just say "brand ambassador for a multinational law firm"?
I would name the firm. Being vague about these things causes more suspicion. Thoughts are “why are you being so vague about who you worked for?”

If I have to email graduate recruitment and not a specific person on the GR team, is it fine to address the email as 'dear graduate recruitment team'?

I've just sent you a message :)
omg same! I was confused if the VI is automatic or if we have to answer the questions in the form well enough to get to that point - do you know? also, how are you going to prep for the interview? :)
Hi! Yh I have also been moved to stage 2! Still very confused and don't understand how I should answer the question!
