[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 151473, member: 2672"] Don’t think about this in terms of age, think about it more about where you will be in your journey. Rather than stating something obvious (eg you will either be qualified or close to qualified working on international matters - this is something all candidates could say that are applying to the firm), think more about where you want to be in terms of skills, knowledge, what type of work you want to be involved in. For instance, do you want to build up knowledge of a particular industry. Do you want to have become more skilled in a particular aspect of a lawyers work? Do you want to be involved in something more specific at the firm - even if that is something outside of fee earning such as having an active role in a particular employee network group or the firm’s pro Bono activities. The importance with this answer is presenting your unique aspirations whilst presenting a realistic expectation of where you will be in five years time. [/QUOTE]
