Message: <blockquote data-quote="Abstruser" data-source="post: 13420" data-attributes="member: 260">So in my experience, commercial awareness isn’t really tested that much in an application unless it’s a specific question eg: tell me about a recent news story. It’s more often tested at the interview stage, eg in case studies. I think that what firms look for in terms of commercial awareness is a solid understanding of a how a business is run. By that I mean you should learn to think about the different objectives a client running a business would have. That should help ‘structure’ and enhance your understanding of the commercial news. I also want to add that commercial awareness isn’t about reading through lots and lots of news articles. I recommend reading up on Porter’s Five Forces and SWOT for a basic understanding of how a business works, and then reading the news in that light. I hope that helps.</blockquote>
