CC 400 Words
One of the questions CC ask for their TC is "tell us about your extra-curricular, positions of responsibility and an achievement of importance you are most proud of".

Questions relating to my degree
Exams this year were much more relaxed as they were online, and we were even explicitly told not to cover certain lectures as they wouldn't be in exams.

Do I simply apply for vacation schemes in these locations and, if successful, this is where I would receive a training contract for? Are these more competitive than TC's in London...- Esporia

Including finance on CV
I'm applying for law and investment banking roles, and as such have a mix of extra-curriculars involving both. Should I still include things like excel modelling competitions on my CV? I fear it may make me appear as undedicated to law.- Esporia

No position of responsibility
I volunteer at citizens advice currently. All the society’s “elections” have passed, so even if I got involved i would have a position of responsibility for vac schemes. i’m hoping volunteering and part-time work demonstrates all the qualities the extra curricular would.- Esporia
