Message: <blockquote data-quote="aditik" data-source="post: 7216" data-attributes="member: 300">Hey guys!So I am currently trying to complete and submit my Skadden application, and I am facing issues with answering 'Why Skadden?' in a satisfactory manner.The main reasons for why I decided to apply to Skadden were:1. The exceptional international arbitration practice (and some really cool deals such as their work representing South Sudan in an ICSID dispute against Sudapet, but I feel like this deal is so famous, nearly every other candidate will mention it?) rounded with a well-established corporate practice; this distinguishes it from some other U.S. firms in London, whose training contracts tend to be transactionally heavy.2. The small trainee intake of around 10-12 each year; I like this because it means you may have a greater sense of community with your trainee cohort, more flexibility in tailoring the TC to your needs, and hopefully, greater levels of responsibility (though I realise that none of these are necessarily a given.)I am not sure how to make my reasons more specific to Skadden. Anyone on this forum who has a bit to add? Or anyone who made it to the Skadden ac previously? Thanks guys</blockquote>
