[QUOTE="Andrei Radu, post: 209747, member: 36777"] I think you should simply seek to discuss the points which you think would add most value to your candidate profile/application as a whole. As [USER=30779]@trainee4u[/USER] said, this will depend a lot on what other sections and questions in the application form were and how you went about answering them. For instance, if the form had no work experience section, it would make sense to describe some of your roles here. Similarly, if there are significant achievements that you did not get to mention in other answers, this would be a good place to do so. Thus, it seems to me there are at least the following options for types of information you could choose to present here: [LIST=1] [*][B]Motivation-based points[/B]: you can basically explain in more detail your why law/why the firm reasoning [*][B]Skills/experiences/achievements-based points:[/B] you can essentially explain any of your relevant CV points that you did not get to present in other sections [*][B]Additional explanatory details[/B]: you can explain anything that will provide recruiter with a better understanding of your application. such as how grading worked in a foreign educational system, any mitigating circumstances.
