[QUOTE="D.Cole, post: 10799, member: 2023"] For your first question, I wouldn’t *always* mention practice area, type of training and diversity as this depends on the firm - some firms are more all-rounders who don’t tend to specialise in one particular area and some firms aren’t really big on diversity (obviously all firms say they are, but there are only a few firms like Baker McKenzie, say, where diversity is their thing). I would always just try to find the things that make x firm different and mention those things, rather than having a set structure. For Slaughter and May, it might be practice area (corporate) and type of training (multi specialist). For DLA Piper, it might be international strategy. For a small US firm, it might be size. If you’ve met the firm, putting the name of the person you met and then talking about how you like their culture looks good too. Just a thought, hope it helps! [/QUOTE]
