[QUOTE="RB, post: 31375, member: 6107"] That’s a fair point, I agree. I guess I’m worried that firms may not be fully convinced with my motivations in working for them if I‘ve applied to a variety of firms. So rather than looking at these firms at such a high level, (if this question ever comes up at an interview) would you suggest just explaining how you understand the differences in the firms you’ve applied to but ultimately why you still want to work for that particular firm? On a another but similar ish note, if you don’t mind helping again! I understand that firms are quite dissimilar but I am having a pretty tough time understanding who their competitors are since full-service law firms, especially the magic circle or even silver circle firms are often top tier for many different areas. That said, do law firms generally have one or two competitors who do very similar work across the board or do they have different competitors based on each of their strong practice areas? Thanks again for your insight! [/QUOTE]
