[QUOTE="TCLA Community Assistant, post: 181059, member: 2672"] I would ensure the majority of the answer sticks to what you are being asked. Sometimes people over anticipate questions or think that they should include things that may show their knowledge, but there is a risk that you don’t answer the question posed. For instance, I have seen plenty of answers that will go into detail as to why it’s important for firms and/or clients but completely fails to address the “why it interests you” part, which is really what the firm is more interested in finding out. You can include brief references to how the story might impact the firm, but make sure you answer the question first. [/QUOTE]
