[QUOTE="Romiras, post: 144195, member: 1993"] Hi Sumi-na I've fixed my profile so hopefully it works now. I never once mentioned my international background from a visa standpoint, but did leverage the fact that I had experiences outside of the UK, albeit it was a minor point. My online applications primarily focused on factors that I found to be most relevant to the firm (e.g. practice strengths, strategy, learning opportunities and structure, etc). In terms of interviewing, being from outside of London or the UK was definitely a larger talking point, as it was more naturally built into the conversation about 'me'. I can't see it ever being seen as a negative, it's just more of a fact which you can use to differentiate yourself. [/QUOTE]
