[QUOTE="emilyding, post: 151834, member: 30768"] Hi guys, I have been receiving many rejections for winter vacation schemes. And I am wondering how could I stand out among those very experienced applicants? I am very confused now and I am not sure should I keep applying for spring/summer vacation schemes. I am a LPC graduate and I don't have much legal work experiences. Unfortunately I could not get any ones as they always require certain level of experiences. So I tried to attend many virtual events from The Legal Cheek, Biucac and Forage. Could any successful applicants share your experience of getting vacation schemes/ training contract? Like how do you answer "why commercial law" "why you" "why this firm" etc. I know I am always wanted to study law since I was young due to my father's business background- so I go on study law degree, focusing on commercial law - and that's my story. How could I make it more interesting? Also, how should I incorporate travel as my hobby/ extra curricular activities into the applications? I always talk about cultural awareness & adaptability - is there any other ways that I could address my hobby? Really appreciate for any advices! [/QUOTE]
