The deadline for OLPAS applications is looming and I'm stumped as to what to say on the 150-word 'career motivation' bit of the form asking why I want to become a barrister. I'm really keen to become a commercial barrister - I've done the research and the mini-pupillages and am even more keen as a result. But do chambers want to hear about my passion for justice, or my passion for helping clients win a contract dispute? Does anyone have any tips as to what to say?
