[QUOTE="addy2004, post: 221617, member: 32274"] Hey everyone - I'm wondering how other people have approached the question '[B]If you could choose a career other than law, what would you choose?'[/B] in a written application question? My approach has been to choose a Financial Adviser for 3 reasons (keep updated with recent market and regulatory changes, the team-centric nature of working as an adviser, and providing ongoing client advice rather than a one-off meeting). Last time I wrote this answer, I related each point back to commercial law and why I would prefer law as opposed to finance (mistake as I got rejected). Does anyone have any tips please on how to structure this and what content firms are looking for? Thank you [/QUOTE]
