(explain its relevance to the role of a trainee/commercial law in general. To the extent possible, make an argument that this quality is perhaps more important for success than the other commonly named relevant ones). [*]Repeat for Z and Y. [*]To conclude, my experiences demonstrate I am X, Y, and Z, which make me a great fit for the position. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
