These experiences should be in your work experience section anyway, and you typically include the employers name there anyway, so there is no issue with referencing other work experience/internships and being specific with the firm’s name. If anything being vague about it can cause more questions than not.@Andrei Radu @Jessica Booker Hi
When mentioning vacation scheme/work experience at other firms in an application form, is it all right to name them? Because then I worry I will have to justify why not the other firm and why the firm I am applying to, whereas a brief 'vacation scheme at X firm helped me explore interest in...." seems like needs less of a justification.
This is fine - we typically see cover letters of around that length.Hi @Jessica Booker I hope you are well - i was wondering if I could kindly ask for your advise on the following -
Regarding the cover letter for Travers smith, on the website it says that there is no word limit to it but “ideally not longer than one A4 page”. However, the application website states that the maximum word count is 1000 words (which is well over an A4 page) moreover, every Travers Smith application I have read in the premium database (that has been successful) has been well over one A4 page as well. I am just slightly concerned since my cover letter is almost 800 words and not sure if you would recommend shorten it down to fit an A4 page?
Sorry for the long question… thank you!
Ok, so the WG is during the AC? So face to face WG then I take it.no no, their second stage is the AC, then there is another Partner Interview after the AC
2-3 days of work at the start, but now I have a bank of responses that work/ don’t work and I tend to reuse them when they ask “tell me about ur extra curriculars” etc and just edit for the word count/ firm so (5-6 hours- 2 research, 2 writing responses, 1 proofing / submitting).How long does one application usually take people?
I can’t remember if they even had that option when I was applying tbh. On their website it said to pick both VS and TC.congrats ! in your app form, did you choose summer specifically or just VS in general? (i cant see my preference in the app form so unsure if it is just me)
Interesting question @Jessica Booker- I had the same question when I was attending a in person AC. Especially nose piercings, are they not appropriate?@Jessica Booker
This might be a silly question, but do firms judge appearances during ACs, specifically piercings? I'm not covered or anything, but I have a decent amount on my ears, and have always covered them with my hair during online interviews. For an in-person AC, should I consider taking them out just to be safe?
