Thanks for having the courage to post this, you’re definitely not alone. This process can be really really brutal - the most painful ones for me were always when I’d got further along the process because by then I’d got my hopes up. As others have said, 4 ACs means you’re clearly doing...- Jaysen

RPC App Question
You don't need to link this to commercial law, just be specific in what you did and recruiters will be able to infer that. Your interests don't have to be related to a legal career either - that's what's going to make you more memorable.- Jaysen

For example, you might say you believe your experiences make you well suited to the firm based on what you learned meeting them...- Jaysen
