Hi!
This is my first post on here, so by way of introduction, my name is Ella, I have graduated with a 2.1 from Bristol Law School, and am doing my LLM in Commercial Law currently.
I am wondering if anyone has any tips or advice on how to develop my commercial awareness ahead of my assessment centre at Mills & Reeve. I really, really, really want to succeed at the AC, however I find it hard to be commerically aware, it is a very ill-defined term in my opinion, and find simply reading the FT has not given me sufficient knowledge in the past to convert interviews into TC's.
Should I focus on the sectors that M&R work in, or the services they offer? It's worrying me how to apply the things in business news to how a law firm would be affected by these issues.
Any advice would be appreciated because I'm stressing out at the classic advice hasnt worked for me thus far.
Thanks!
