    Hey Daniel, just wondering how did your interview go? :)
    Hi Radu,

    I think it went well thanks! Could answer every question they gave me and had an interesting discussion with them so quietly optimistic :)

    It was very conversational and they basically just asked me about my application form, why I had done certain things on my CV and then asked why I chose the topic I did for the US-China trade war.

    I'd recommend really knowing about the firm in a lot of detail and be able to give a point of view on your commercial awareness topic but other than that just be yourself - but on a really good day!

    All the best,
    Dan

    What do you mean by knowing about the firm in a lot of detail? What should I focus on?
    I have an interview with them tomorrow. Thx!
