Hi everyone!

I am currently drafting an application for an Open Day at Taylor Wessing and this is the question they are asking:

• Why would you like to apply for an open day and if successful, what questions would you put forward to one of our lawyers? (500 words max)

I wanted to ask you advice on how I should structure my answer: (i) should I first answer the first part of the question, that is why I would like to apply for an open day, and then write my questions as bullet points, or (ii) can I mix those two parts and include the questions within my paragraphs about why I would like to apply for an open day? And if I go for option (i), should I divide the two parts equally - 250 words each - or can I use most of the word count for the first part and only write 3-5 questions at the end?

I was also wondering whether I should mention a specific lawyer's name or 'one of our lawyers' simply means anyone at the firm.

Thank you for your help and good luck to all of you!
