I used 3 different approaches:1) Media: I spoke about my first legal unpaid work experience where I analysed the US flexible forms of copyright and compared against the system in my country where copyright is notoriously restrictive. I mentioned what i liked and how the Legal Tier 1 ranking in media could benefit me but also what I could bring to the firm given my work experience and my studies in IP law. Plus,I also mentioned their legal lateral hire of a strong media new partner and what he is going to bring. He works with Stormzy and Jesse Glynne (sorry cannot remember how to spell her surname) so new clients..more work and more money.2) Family law: I spoke about my activism for gay rights and how during university I also participated in a campaign for the Referendum on fertility laws and argued against the no as it discriminated against women. Then linked my activism to the firm's work on fertility and gay couples.3) Spoke about the firm's work on diversity and their inclusive culture. As a lesbian black woman is important to work in a firm's that implements an inclusive environment where i can be myself. It might not be perfect but this is a start!</blockquote>
