[QUOTE="futuretraineesolicitor, post: 60594, member: 4098"] Hey Guys! I just took down everything that I felt was important. Hope this helps anybody who doesn't have the time to watch the full video. Info that theyre looking for on the personal statement form: -why you, why are you applying, what could you bring to the role, what are your interests, what have you achieved, why commercial law, why FBD, if youve interacted with firms in any way, that’d be really good to include. How to stand out think of your interests, experiences and try and link it back to the position/ firm you’re applying for- think about the skills that you would need as a trainee. Variety is interesting. -Fine to call it Freshfields rather than Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer Skills that they’re looking for in a trainee: Core skills: teamwork, collaboration, communication skills, interpersonal skills, resilience( for eg if u didnt get the marks that you thought ud get, and how did you turn that around?) , writing skills, having an interest the commercial world, interest in technology Top tips for preparing for the virtual assessment day be prepared to talk about anything that you put in your personal statement Double check your internet, mic and camera [/QUOTE]
