If you do it, make sure they are very short key words rather when what you would say out loud. Otherwise you will read it like it’s a script or speech and this can come across as disingenuous.

Tagging in @Jaysen or @Erin who will be able to provide you with more detail.@Jessica Booker- I want to purchase one of the TCLA written exercise packs as I have my first-ever AC written exercise coming up (OC AC), I was wondering which one I should select between the Technical written exercise and the Legal and Commercial Analysis written exercise. What is the difference between the two? Thanks

I would say:
- Presence of a specific practice area which is innovative for the financial, economic and socio-political considerations around competitors.
- International presence: how many offices they have in the world, what areas of the world are covered by the firm which are not by others.
- Training contract structure and opportunities: are there opportunities in this law firm which are not present in others?
- Talent retention: how many people stay at the firm after qualification?
Fieldfisher Diversity Access Scheme Offer 🥳🥳🥳🥳 so happy!!
What’s the rule regarding choosing whether a work experience is SQE qualifying? Coz in a few applications, I ticked “yes” for my current role coz I am doing a mixture of paralegal and business operations work, but I’ve never had a chat with my employer about whether it is actually QWE or not. SQE states that QWE is “any experience of providing legal services that offers you the opportunity to develop some or all of the competencies needed to practice as a solicitor”. Will I be in trouble if it turns out it’s not QWE?
Samee! 😍
Just got invited to the assessment centre for Trowers and Hamlins' vacation scheme in Manchester. Has anyone else heard back from them yet?
Me too for Exeter!
Haven’t heard anything regarding the London AC as of yet!
congrats, is this for the london office?
For interview questions such as "Tell us about a time you have been resilient" and "When have you faced and overcome obstacles" are firms unlikely to ask both of these or are they looking for different answers for each. Also, is it the STARR or PEE method we should be using when trying to structure our responses? Thanks in advance
I converted it from spring straight to AC so idk what the WG process was like, sorry
