[QUOTE="Miss Chocolate, post: 156467, member: 32247"] I don't know if I should apply to Bristows? Apparently (according to Legal Cheek), they only hand out 10 TCs a year and I feel like that's insanely competitive. Also almost all trainees on LinkedIn are either STEM students or have masters. I just feel like I don't want to waste my time applying for firms I likely won't end up working in but as a student I do have to somewhat take a scattergun approach and hope I land something. Like it's one of the firms I won't mind if I end up working there since I have a strong interest in IP. But like say I had offers from both CRS ad Bristows, I would lean towards CRS because of their expertise in private client work + art/IP work. Ugh. :( I feel like the whole 'are you GENUINELY interested in us' is unhelpful because as a student you DON'T have the luxury to be interested in one thing and one thing only. Like, could I see myself working at Bristows? Yes. Could I see myself working in CRS? yes. Could I see myself working at HSF? yes, girl's gotta pay bills!! UGHHHHH [/QUOTE]
