[QUOTE="George Maxwell, post: 89521, member: 17165"] Hi [USER=11842]@Harryross98[/USER], Thank you for the question. I think it is really good to collaborate on these sorts of question as people will often interpret these questions in different and interesting ways! You sound like you have some really interesting thoughts on this. I think the most important thing is to structure your answer in a way that makes it easy for the reader to follow. Try to make your reasons distinct (or at least easy to digest). Recruiters will appreciate answers which show an ability to present an argument clearly and concisely, as this is a really valuable skill as a commercial lawyer. So don't be afraid to signpost at the start of a paragraph to tell the reader what you are going to cover in that paragraph. I often started applications by saying, "The first reason that X firm is Y is because Z", before developing that reason further. Very happy to go into more detail on this if you would like. You have clearly done some great thinking on this though. Keep going! [/QUOTE]
