Fieldfisher Application

[Ayo Babatunde]

Hey everyone!

The two questions for the Fieldfisher application I am currently working on are:

1. Why do you want to train as a solicitor at Fieldfisher? (300 words max)

2. What interests you about a career in commercial law? (300 words max)

Usually when it comes to questions like no.1, I would split the question into two, i.e. , 'Why do I want to train as a solicitor' and then separately answer 'why at X firm'. However, because the second question asks about why I am interested in commercial law, I do not want to put all my motivations for being a solicitor in the first question.

Would it be better to focus q1 on my reasons purely for applying to Fieldfisher or should I answer the question the way I usually do?

Thanks so much!

I’d focus purely on why FF not your usual approach
