I'm currently trying to fill up the application form but I'm having trouble inputting my schools. I'm an international student and the form only allows you to pick from a list of schools on their database, and the school I went to isn't there. There is no option to manually input this...- RB

Hogan Lovells Application 2020/21
I do understand that however they explicitly said that candidates focused too much on what they enjoyed about the role rather than what they did. I just don’t quite understand why they’d ask in the question what made it so enjoyable because it made me assume that the focus of the question was...- RB
