[QUOTE="SoonToBeTrainee, post: 181427, member: 32830"] Interesting question and to be honest, I’d say all firms value personality and uniqueness. For 99% of vac scheme applications, you won’t be disadvantaged for not having legal experience. If anything, you can probably leverage your non-law experiences to craft some compelling applications for any type of firm you wish to pursue. I’d recommend focusing more on what law firms appeal to you personally, rather than what law firms you think you have the best chance with. Ultimately, you’re going to have the best chance of securing a job with a law firm that you’re genuinely interested in. If you’re interested in finance and perhaps finance law, have a Google at what law firms are particularly good in this area and go from there! [/QUOTE]
