Since they've asked you to describe the *key* learnings and skills you've gained, I'd stick to 3-5 skills, depending on how much detail you want to go into. I don't believe STAR/CAR is too useful here and it would be best to be more descriptive.

If a firm is v strong in many areas, including project finance and private equity, but my main motivation was because of its project finance practice, would I need to mention private equity in an interview (even though I only know the basics and can't say I'm interested in it due to no experience)?

If the firm has a compulsory PE seat, then it maybe something you want to still reference. You don’t necessarily have to say you are interested in it, you can frame it more that you are looking forward to experiencing it through the TC.
Dentons Watson Glaser invite (app submitted mid October) but no indication of the test deadline. Any ideas?
When applying to Clyde & Co Vac Scheme, is it a necessity to complete their Forage internship? They ask on the application whether you have completed it or not
I think it always helps but not a necessity - I got through to the VI without having completed it
Thank you for your helpI think it always helps but not a necessity - I got through to the VI without having completed it
How long after you submitted your application did you get a VI invitation?Literally the same situation here - no indication of the deadline whatsoever
what scheme is this for spring or summer?Literally the same situation here - no indication of the deadline whatsoever
i just got my Clyde and co report however the assessment centre is in the next 3 days and no outcome yet. I’m almost certain it’s a no because 2 days is really not a lot of time to prepare for an AC but weird they sent me my feedback report but not an outcome!
I am in the same boat, trying to find a way to contact them. this is very frustrating just give me a PFO and move on
(No it’s not, I’ve got an AC and didn’t do it. As long as you can explain why the firm appeals to you and how you fit into that you’ll be fine.
Same. My first cycle and feel like competition is really fierce
