[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 249720, member: 42112"] Hey! Yes, I'd say it is definitely worth mentioning your non-law experience here. You could suggest things such as: [LIST] [*]A multi-generational firm will have different communication styles and levels of experience [*]You'd adapt your approach depending on the individual (e.g. being proactive and receptive to feedback with senior colleagues, collaborative and supportive with peers, etc.) [*]Your previous roles show you are comfortable working with people of different ages and can communicate appropriately (+ you might include a brief example here to demonstrate your point). [/LIST] Therefore, it is definitely worth mentioning - I'd just try to keep it focused on respect and willingness to learn / adapt :) [/QUOTE]
