While it's fine to anchor your answer in one of the main areas (e.g. Private Wealth, Dispute Resolution, Corporate & Commercial, Real Estate), Forsters is really looking for an insight into specific practice areas or teams within those umbrellas (e.g. Residential Property, Planning, Contentious Trusts & Estates, etc.)In your answer, I would:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Name two specific practice areas/teams, not just two main departments</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Show you understand what that team actually does at Forsters</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Explain why those areas appeal to you (e.g. skills, type of work, client base, exposure during a TC).</li> </ul>That said, you definitely don't need to be overly niche - choosing a well-defined sub-area within the main practice areas is absolutely acceptable, and can show that you've researched the firm properly rather than giving a generic answer.Hope that helps, and best of luck with your application! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
