Application Advice:

Research the firm thoroughly, concentrating on our core practice areas (Corporate, Projects, Finance).

Attend an open day or vacation scheme if possible - there is no better way to decide if you want to work here.

Interview Advice:

Be honest.

Go over your application form beforehand and be prepared to talk about any of it with examples.

Think about answers to standard questions:
- why this firm (rather than other firms / other types of firms)?
- why you?

etc.

Application Advice:

Undertake research on the firm thoroughly and engage with the application process. Have a clear idea of why you are applying to the firm and why you think you could add value and integrity well. These are important themes to remember throughout the application and impress on those reading applications.

Interview Advice:

Be yourself. It is important to remember that each firm may appear similar but the fabric of each firm is identifiably different and it is important for both yourself, the applicant, and those interviewing you to present an honest impression of themselves.
