Eversheds Application Question

I have three questions and I have completed two. Writing is a bit rough at the moment.

I am really nervous about the first question because if I want to be completely honest, It would require me to share a personal journey and I am worried it might not be appropriate for a TC application.

Any feedback is appreciated.

I have three questions and I have completed two. Writing is a bit rough at the moment.

Any feedback is appreciated.

1. I really like your first answer. You were to the point and covered your activities well.

To improve:
  • Drill down on why quality was important to you a little further and not just to the company.
  • Make sure your sentences are clear, there's a few that could be better phrased.
  • "Spreadsheet" is one word.

2. A strong answer. You're very good at being specific about your response to the situation, well done.

To improve:
  • Cut your first sentence, you can dive straight into your answer.
  • I like how you've tackled the "energising" point first, but it's a bit waffly. See if you can make this more concise.
  • You say you'll update staff members on your progress; can you be more specific?
To answer your point about the first question, I find personal journeys often make for the best answers.
