[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 155191, member: 2672"] My guidance on this is will 50% or more of your training contract be in practice areas you are happy to work in? If so, go for it. If not, then its likely to not be the firm for you. Sometimes firms just use the term "commercial" to cover a broad set of the work they do, and things like private client can still fall into that given the typically high levels of wealth their clients have. So I wouldn't worry to much about the definitions in questions, but I would look at whether the firm can truly give you the experience you will need, not only for your training contract, but on qualification as well. And by having multiple practice areas that align to your interests, the chances of that are much greater. [/QUOTE]
