Thank you so much! Another question i had was relating to tailored my reasons for why this firm. During my previous interview i gave two main reasons as my interest and n the firm: their strength and excellence in a practice area which i linked back to a module i took in dispute resolution and mooting, as well as their smaller intake which i linked back to my past experience in customer service working in similar smaller groups with high responsibility. I also talked abt a conversation i had with a current trainee and linked it back to why what they said was important to me and why i liked it (again, talking abt my work experience which aligned with).


During my feedback call, grad rec mentioned that the interviewers felt i didnt quite convey my interest in the firm enough and that it was a little too general. I couldnt ask exzctly what they meant by that or what i said that conveyed this. Would you have advice on how to improve in the next stage, especially since i feel like that my reasons for why the firm were quite well linked to the firm and me?
