    Few words of advice for the BM video interview should you make it past the WG, I would research something pertinent in the news to a practice area you're interested in, to do with sustainability.

    As this came up as the last question and very much caught me on the hop..
    Thank you very much for this really appreciate this. But honestly am taking it one step at a time.
