[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 220245, member: 42112"] Hi! I think this really depends on the qualities and skills that you can genuinely support with your own experiences. Rather than trying to fit a generic list, it’s best to look at the skills and values that the firm emphasises on its website and trainee profiles and then reflect on which of those are evident in your past experiences or extra-curriculars. For example, if the firm highlights teamwork and commercial awareness, you could link this to a time you worked on a group project or taken part in a competition that required you to think commercially. By approaching it this way, you’re ensuring that your answer is personal to you and tailored to what the firm is looking for. I hope that assists :) [/QUOTE]
