[QUOTE="Ernote182, post: 37770, member: 7949"] Hi, this might be a strange question: I am applying to a law firm abroad and wonder whether disclosing personal information such as engagement or marital status with a person of that country is something that I can put in my cover letter? As an example, mentioning something along the line of “Due to my Klingon fiancé, I am well aware of the Klingon culture ...”. I am quite torn and not sure whether this is totally irrelevant and perhaps unprofessional or whether it could highlight to the recruiters that I am aware of the country's culture, especially given that it is a country with culture rather different from the UK one. Thanks for any input! [/QUOTE]
