[QUOTE="Harvey Specter - Presiding Partner, post: 250889, member: 35674"] [JUSTIFY]I’m working on a DTC app for Stephenson Harwood and the app questions have fused my last two remaining brain cells together and now I have no idea what they mean or to write: 1: tell us why you want to become a solicitor and with reference to your experience so far, explain how your skills are suited to the role. (350 words). Do I structure this as X, Y and Z reasons for why I want to become a solicitor (50 words) and then around 50-60 words referring to specific personal experiences and transferrable skills for each? OR Do I structure it as roughly 150-170 words solely on why I want to become a solicitor and 150-170 words discussing my experiences so far and the transferable skills I’d bring to the role? OR Neither of the above and I’m just a donut. 🍩 2: Using relevant examples, tell us what makes SH the right firm for you (350 words). Does relevant examples mean referring to my own experiences (again), or referring to the firm’s work, practices, industries, etc? If it’s the former, what exactly can I put in the work experience section cos tbh I don’t exactly have 283895050600 years of relevant work experience so it seems pretty cooked… 🫠 Any help would be appreciated and apologies for the long ahh post this is baso an essay atp… [IMG alt="Mad Fun GIF"]https://media4.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTZhYjVjZjE1d2owYmVubngwcjB6NGsyaGJhbjBzaWI1czJjOHp3OG95cXdoOWJpMSZlcD12MV9naWZzX3NlYXJjaCZjdD1n/8hhuGidIs1omrQcEbK/200.gif[/IMG][/JUSTIFY] [/QUOTE]
