[QUOTE="Joe Pagett, post: 29580, member: 1581"] Was a bit stumped when I was asked this at interview a little while back, the question went along the lines of: 'Could you give us an example of where you used commercial awareness in a professional situation' So having thought about it, my thoughts are as follows, but I am still not sure how to answer it to a satisfactory degree [LIST] [*]An example from a legal internship or work experience, although it might be rarer for commercial awareness to fit in there depending on the job [*]How my knowledge from having read about a particular business/industry benefitted my work as I already had a grounding in the area, or noticed something quicker due to having seen something similar before [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
