should you avoid repeating things you've already mentioned in your application during a VI? it's hard to think of new examples/ reasons when you've put your best ones in the app

This is something I'm also struggling with - especially if they ask why law, why this firm etc. @Jessica Booker ?

Have the same question but regarding VIs and subsequent at ACs. Do interviewers know what we've said during VIs?
