[QUOTE="Tavistocksfinest, post: 51376, member: 4470"] Hi guys, I am preparing for the question 'Tell me about a recent business story' which I will be asked in a Skadden telephone interview tomorrow, and I just wanted to get some opinions on what to do. My instinct is to talk about the retail sector- it's something I know a lot about and I can relate it to key practice areas (M&A, PE as well as corporate restructuring). However, it isn't an industry they regularly work in, and barring their role advising LMVH last year I haven't seen a lot of work they've done in the sector. Alternatively, I know bits about the industries they list on their website. I could certainly talk about one of those, but I definitely won't know as much about it as I do about the retail sector. Difficult question to ask- but does anyone have any opinions on which will look better? Or if it makes very little difference? [/QUOTE]
