[QUOTE="Jaysen, post: 36097, member: 1"] D&I/commitment to trainees sounds good. Points about culture would strike me as quite vague/generic, unless you had met the firm previously or had some specific evidence to back this up. The same applies to the training style; some firms have quite unique training styles (e.g. non-rotational/multi-specialist), so this would only work for me if you had something specific to point to. Otherwise, this could apply to most other firms. Law firms want to see that you have clear and convincing justification for why you are applying to their firm. If you can then do that through points about culture/training, that's absolutely fine. As I mention above though, you would need to be pointing to something specific. I don't imagine many firms would say they don't have a warm, inclusive culture. [/QUOTE]
