[QUOTE="Alice G, post: 36100, member: 1160"] I agree with everything Jaysen has said. It’s a balancing act really between discussing what genuinely attracts you but making sure you root it well in tailored facts and try to avoid the vagueness. To avoid this myself I met the firms and engaged with them and tried to pick something quite specific about the culture whilst linking it back to me. I also think it’s good to think about specific cultural hallmarks which matter to you- it could be things like mentorship, feedback appraisals or how much your voice can be heard in a firm etc. I always used to spend a lot of time researching and looking through LinkedIn for more niche aspects to a firm which drew me in- I found this depth of research can help to make you stand out! I think culture is important but do think it’s best to root it in more substantive policies and elements to a firm to make it more convincing and always remember to relate why this matters to you.
