[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 34828, member: 2672"] To explain this a bit better, I have seen plenty of people get things wrong when describing deals to partners. However, they have just misunderstood a technicality or haven’t fully understood the practical applications. However, they have spoken about it with enthusiasm and also have shown analysis that was right based on the knowledge they did have. Lawyers/Partners know they can correct/further the technical knowledge of a trainee - that will come with time and experience while they train and develop. But lawyers can’t give trainees the want to learn about these topics, nor make them enthusiastic about the subject matter (this is something that will generally make their job easier and more pleasant too). So you interest and analysis will always win out over “knowledge”. [/QUOTE]
