"Why do you want to apply to our firm?"... This is one of the most common questions in the application form and it's one where I think a lot of aspiring lawyers could make their answer much better.
It's easy for your answer to end up repeating all of a firm's awards and achievements back to them - but that's not what they want to see.
A good answer to this question can show off your personality as well as demonstrating the research you've done into the firm.
While I can't tell you why you want to work at your preferred firm, I'm going to go over a strategy that I'd recommend for you to use when you're faced with this question... to make sure you've got a well-reasoned and tailored answer for the firm every single time.
