[QUOTE="Yminh, post: 3171, member: 687"] Hi guys, This I think is the type of application question I struggle the most with! I'm not sure what the firms are trying to get out of me from this kind of question, is it a competency-based or motivation-based? Are they trying to find out what values I deem to be important? Do I need to provide concrete examples, i.e. successful leadership of a student society, or can I provide a more abstract answer, i.e. overcome my fear in public speaking and secured a place in a mooting competition's quarter-final? Does it need to be something huge and incredibly impactful or small achievements are okay? Will really appreciate any advice or sharing of examples of how you have successfully approached this sort of question in the past. Thank you! [/QUOTE]
