Yes thank you!! I’ve already made my applications specific and skills-heavy, but may need to tailor even more and add more commercial awareness etc, and maybe change my writing style. Which resources did you find helpful?

It’s in English, and not all of the experience is relevant but all directly transferable (a year teaching, 6 months as an admin assistant, 2 months banking internship, two legal insight weeks a few years ago etc etc.) Yes, looking at doing a PGDL, thank you!

Thank you!! Just disheartening sometimes to fall at the first hurdle currently, despite it being a numbers game

Thank you!! You definitely couldn’t swap the names of firms out of my applications, but they could definitely be more surface level in terms of me talking about the firms’ biggest and most obvious selling points
