[QUOTE="j.s.cox, post: 122544, member: 20454"] Hi everyone, I'm Jiya. This year I am trying to improve my commercial awareness and success at AC's as these are the areas I fell down on last year. I will achieve this by: [LIST] [*]Completing at least one lecture of the courses offered by TCLA each day to have a continuous top-up of general commercial knowledge. [*]Finding at least one article that interests me each week and writing about why it is important to businesses and why it is important to law firms. I may post this on LinkedIn to ask my connections if they have further ideas about my thoughts, but I may do this once I feel a bit more confident about my abilities! [*]Making myself a booklet for each law firm I've applied to with bullet points of answers to questions they could potentially ask, as well as a reminder of why I have chosen to apply to that firm. For example, each of the competencies they look for, why law, why the firm, and general commercial questions. I will aim to update these at least once a week and treat it almost like a revision book where the ideas I write down can be developed in an actual interview. [*]Only making applications to law firms that I can genuinely see myself at, and ensuring that I have finished my applications for them at least 1 week before the deadlines to have time to properly check them. [/LIST] Good luck with TC hunting everyone! [/QUOTE]
