[QUOTE="Matt_96, post: 16338, member: 1260"] When a firm asks you to talk specifically about the positions of responsibility you have been in, is it acceptable to talk about a job, even though that could be covered by the work experience section? I recently worked as a waiter in a small restaurant which was fairly understaffed so I often had to take on responsibilities beyond my role, and it is something that I think could be a good example. My only current non-work related position of responsibility at university is volunteering at a law clinic and my other examples are not at all recent. The Law Clinic is something I'd be happy to talk about in-depth but I think I need one or two more as I have 300 words to fill. Would it be alright to talk about having a minor position on a sports club committee during 2nd year undergrad (that was in 2015-16 though, so quite a while ago) or perhaps as a student mentor during final year undergrad (2017-18)?
