[QUOTE="Andrei Radu, post: 194993, member: 36777"] In terms of generally applicable questions, a few I would list are: [LIST=1] [*]Am I answering every question in such a complete, persuasive and clear manner that I would find no issues with it, even if I reviewed it with a purpose of finding as many inadequacies as possible? [*]Is my style of writing formal enough that it could be published in a Reuters or Financial Times article? [*]Is my structure and writing clear enough that a normal person would get every point I am making on a quick read/skim? [*]Is my use of language so concise that there is no possibility of expressing my ideas with a better word per added value ratio? Am I sure there aren't any phrases and words that I could cut while keeping the essential information there? [*]Am I linking my main motivations with examples of experiences? [*]Am I being very specific when describing the nature of my motivations and the activities in my experiences? [*]Am I using a STAR structure when describing my main experiences? [*]Am I demonstrating the relevance of my experiences and skills by making plausible connections to the role and responsibilities of a trainee at the firm I am applying at? [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
