[QUOTE="AvniD, post: 89187, member: 17155"] Hi [USER=4881]@moxiebobo[/USER], In my experience, I always find something that I can change about my answers, even if they were written with my best effort at the time. If you find that you do not want to change the content of some of your answers, try examining their structure, tone, style of writing- do they match how you express yourself today? Can you elaborate on your answers with more detail or clarity? Can you link them better to the characteristics that the firm is looking for in their trainees? I also remember a recruiter giving me advice about re-using application answers and they essentially said that if you want to re-use answers you should ensure that you tailor them further by using/including any new information about or experience you've gained with the firm. While tailoring your answers in this manner is easier to do with industry or firm-specific questions, you can also try this with questions like 'what is your proudest achievement?' by linking them to anything new you've learnt from the firm's open days, webinars, graduate recruitment events, social media etc. about the structure/tone/character traits they may be looking for in your answers. Good luck with your applications and I hope this helps! [/QUOTE]
