[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 35859, member: 2672"] Strangely only asked this the other day! No it won’t be. The reason for this is that you made a decision to meet the firms so clearly had some criteria in place already when you choose to go to the events/speak to them. You also need to explain why they made a favourable impression to you - that clearly also influenced your decision to apply but what was the difference between the firms that made a favourable impression versus those that didn’t. If that is them just being nice, that isn’t enough though. To be frank people are nice at events on purpose, the schmooze is on. Speaking to someone at an event isn’t going to be like what it’s like working with them, so you need to delve deeper into why you would like doing the job there instead of somewhere else too.
