[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 245611, member: 42112"] Hello! For a 150-word answer, I would try to keep it focused and personal. A structure that I would follow is: [B]1. Briefly define the value in your own words[/B] - 1-2 sentences to show that you understand what it means [B]2. Explain why it matters to you personally[/B] - what does it look like in practice for you, and why is it important? [B]3. Give a short and specific example that shows where you have displayed that value - [/B]this could be from work, uni, part-time job, extra-curriculars, etc. [B]4. Link it back to Weightmans[/B] - add a line or two on why this value resonates and aligns with their culture or the kind of lawyer that you want to be at the firm. You don't need to use lots of examples - I would focus on depth over breadth. Just make sure that the example clearly demonstrates the value, rather than just stating it. I hope that assists! :) [/QUOTE]
