Right now, I am trying to think of an answer as to why JD as opposed to other law firms I have applied to. (e.g Weil, Cleary, Willkie, Kirkland) I have consistently picked US law firms who are strong either in PE or restructuring as those are my main interests. How do I explain my JD pick though-- they have expertise in PE/ Restructuring though not to the same extent as the other firms I've listed. I am interested in JD mainly for their training and opportunity to shape my own TC. If they did not have this aspect, I wouldn't apply to them. The international nature is appealing to me, but none of the above firms I have applied to above make being a 'global' powerhouse a strong reason for applying and so I find it difficult to use this reason to justify JD. If anyone is willing to offer some advice, that would be great. Cheers</blockquote>
