[QUOTE="1stCycleApplicant, post: 223976, member: 36764"] Hi again! HFW aren’t referred to as Holman, Fenwick and Willan anymore, so only use ‘HFW’ in you written application. 2 key things the firm look for in applications: 1) An understanding of their sector focus and why that makes them stand out against their competitors. Why does the sector focus approach appeal to you. Although, you could tailor the entire application towards the complex environment team, I’m sure that would be fine tbh. But showing an understanding for the sector focus is key. 2) Guaranteed international secondment. They’re like the only firm that has a compulsory international seat, so clearly they value their trainees having a global mindset. You need to show that you are aware that most of the firms work has an international scope (especially complex environments), and why that particularly appeals to you. [/QUOTE]
