[USER=36777]@Andrei Radu[/USER] and [USER=36740]@Amma Usman[/USER] would definitely have much more to say here, but I wanted to jump in so that you could get a start on developing your answer to this question.


One thing I've noticed in various applicants' answers to these questions is that they can normally afford to be more specific about their interests in corporate M&A work. The term itself is incredibly broad, and can encompass everything from structuring deals, financing them, considering governance and regulatory issues, and so on. Firms often have distinct strengths within this area, so identifying what interests you most about their particular M&A work will help you craft a much more focused answer. I'd encourage you to have a closer look at the firm's M&A expertise here.


You might also want to think about why M&A interests you personally. Is it the strategic element of helping companies grow in certain ways? Is it the potential to gain exposure to different sectors and their potential interaction in a deal or transaction? Is there some other factor you find compelling? When you can pinpoint what fascinates you, it becomes easier to articulate why you want to learn more about how the firm approaches these aspects during an open day event.


Hope this offers some prompts to get you to develop your answer further. Good luck!
