[QUOTE="ReedSmithBecca, post: 148998, member: 30879"] Hi! Don’t forget the basics like good spelling and grammar, so I always recommend drafting answers to your application form in word so that you can more easily proof read them. Otherwise, do not discount all the valuable non-legal experience that you might have! Applicants commonly don’t write about things like part-time jobs, thinking that working in retail for example might not be relevant. But part time jobs, volunteering, student societies etc allow candidates to develop transferable skills that are hugely valuable in the application process! So do highlight this. [/QUOTE]
