[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 71682, member: 2672"] 1) Yes - that is fine. You don’t have to explicitly mention Manchester, you can just focus on how the firm ensure less administrative tasks are given to trainees 2) Yes it is fine to still mention the 8 potential rotations, but it’s important to explain what this specifically means to you and why it is important. For one person it may mean they can get more advisory seats, and yet still sit in core practice areas, for the next person it could be that the flexibility (eg extending some seats) allows them to be flexible with their choices as their TC progresses, for the next person it could mean that doing a international secondment and a client secondment is feasible. You need to explain why it specifically appeals to you beyond the system itself. I wouldn’t be bold enough the claim it is the firm with the most seats - I wouldn’t say that is true for most FBD trainees. (reality is your first seat is more than likely to be 6 months in a core practice area, if you did an international secondment, this is most likely to be 6 months too, so even if your remaining seats are all 3 months - again unlikely though - you’d only do 6 seats. There are many firms that offer 6 seat TCs). [/QUOTE]
