Hi guys for firms which allow you to re-record your video interview answers does it matter how many attempts you take? I think I just redid an answer to the same question about 100 times and I am worried that the firm will see that it took me so long to get to a coherent answer haha!

they can probably see the time it was recorded and the difference in time compared to the earlier answer. They clearly don’t care though if you can re-record as many times as you want.

Anyone got tips for AG assessment centre?

there are lots of things you can talk about for the case study/partner briefing but make sure you don’t just talk about them all generally. As there just isn’t enough time for you to go through all of them in detail, pick out the most important things and go into them in depth. I made the mistake of thinking just because I had a lot to say and picked out everything there was I was doing well haha
