Hey everyone,


If I could give you a top application tip, it would be to find something unique about your dream firm. Standing out in applications requires you to provide details that most candidates do not rely upon. For example, reading a firm's annual review, diversity report, and publications will give you unique insights to tailor your application answers to that firm.


Let's say you are interested in applying for X firm. After reading X's website and career pages, you learned that X is renowned for its corporate practice. Many candidates will use this information to justify their motivation for working at X. But since you read X's annual report, you know that X's corporate practice generated 40% of the firm's revenue. X advised on public M&A deals worth £200 billion last year.


You will most likely stand out among thousands of applicants by providing such unique and detailed information in your applications. I hope that helps, and all the best for your applications!
