[QUOTE="Annalise2.0, post: 13964, member: 1513"] Hiya, I am currently applying for SPB's winter vac scheme. It only requires a CV and cover letter and was wondering if anyone could advise how to best structure my cover letter. I've always usually applied to firms with set questions. This is the structure I have in mind: 1. Why Law and Commercial Law 2. Why SPB and why I want to do a vac scheme there 3. Demonstrate competencies that I have that would make me a good trainee. Does this sound like I am on the right track? I was also wondering how long a cover letter for vac schemes usually is - I am planning to write a page to keep it concise. My current CV is also 2 pages long but I have heard a few firms prefer a one page CV for vac schemes and training contracts. Do I submit my 2 page CV with my application? Thanks a lot in advance :) [/QUOTE]
