What makes you particularly suited to a career at XXX than other applicants?
Good job for noticing the distinction, it's important that you are focusing on why you are suitable rather than why you are applying. Your last point is exactly what I would do.- Jaysen

Hearing Back from Firms + AC & Interview Tips Share - 2018 - 2019
I sent this to an applicant who had a very strong application but still got rejected. If it's any consolation I thought I'd share it here: I think it's impossible to pick what it is. Sometimes, recruiters just have a feel for what they like/dislike. They have to reject many strong candidates...- Jaysen

The UK Parliament votes on Brexit - Tuesday 15 January 2018 - 7pm
Thanks for sharing. It's also the case that the EU won't want to make things easy for the UK because it would send the wrong signal to other member states, that it would be OK to leave the EU and still get good deal terms. If that was the case, EU efforts for further integration would be...- Jaysen

You put down pretty much what I've been thinking! I think it's incredible what May has had to deal with, especially as she's practically hated from every side. I'm not convinced a different PM could have secured a "better" deal at this point. When she's criticised, many people seem to miss out...- Jaysen

Q: Two prospective clients - which one to choose?
I've reviewed many OC applications and quite a few fell down on this question because they either didn't read the question properly or they didn't clearly explain why a particular piece of information is important. However, the points you've noted down are great and suggest you understand the...- Jaysen
