[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 84953, member: 2672"] The other thing about tailoring an application is making sure it is tailored to you. This is where many people go wrong - they only tailor it to the firm and not to them and their motivations. To do this you have to explore what you think you will enjoy working in firms, whether it’s the type of responsibilities you’ll have, the subjects, the ways in which you work etc. Doing this will then help you create your summary of firms - you don’t need to know everything about a firm but you do need to understand why it will appeal to you and why there is a decent chance you will stick to a career there too. And that tailoring should be slightly different for each applicant, which is why it will help your application stand out from the crowd. [/QUOTE]
