[QUOTE="Afraz Akhtar, post: 231369, member: 43563"] Hi [USER=40440]@Pearl3181[/USER] Although both answers could be good. The examples themselves are not the important detail, so expand on your roles or bring in different experiences not on your CV - but make sure the takeaway (whether its insight or skills) that you mention are akin to that of a legal career/what the firm is looking for. If it helps, you could begin by jotting down a list of your academic studies/qualifications/work experiences and for each one think of how that would be similar to your role as a trainee/transferable skills that align with what the firm is looking for. Once this is done, try to focus on one experience from each category and remove the ones with repetitive skills. That should help you decide what to go for in the end (whether or not it is already included in your CV work experience). [/QUOTE]
