Message: <blockquote data-quote="rr1809" data-source="post: 228910" data-attributes="member: 31530">Hi, When I attended an application workshop, I was told this question is often asked because applicants come in thinking that they're all hands on deck and massively involved in deals, when the reality is that trainees are required for more 'non glamorous' tasks such as support and due diligence, and this question is often asked to see if you understand this. The key word is trainee solicitor, not solicitor! I think mentioning some awareness that you'll be supporting a team and learning a lot on the job is crucial for this answer. You can then try and find an opportunity to link it to the firm's strengths (e.g PE) so you display that you are aware of and familiar with the fields you'll be working in. Hope this helped!</blockquote>

Verification: Our company is called, "The Corporate ___ Academy". What is the missing word here?
