Not sure, I made it to the final interview for a VS last year and I think my application/experience was much weaker than this year (not as many grades, I also now have a year plus of legal experience in a commercial area).no like genuinely what did w&c even go off, when giving VIs selectively?? grades?? automatic filtering? genuinely so confused
I took longer than I should have on the SJT as I did it whilst sick, and from reading this forum I approached the deal question a lot more pragmatically than suggested on here (incorporating why W&C which I touched on elsewhere in my app, etc), but who knows
.
It was definitely scores from the SJT+WG and the question on the deal in the application. My application quality is always the same but my WG+SJT has always tanked me; I feel like I did better this time and hence managed to get the VI.no like genuinely what did w&c even go off, when giving VIs selectively?? grades?? automatic filtering? genuinely so confused
Does anyone have any advice for a telephone interview? This will be my first one; I'm quite nervous and note sure what to expect. Do you have any recommendations @Abbie Whitlock ? Would appreciate any insight!
Hi, I've submitted application a bit late for Reed Smith, was busy with exams,
I was wondering if anyone has gotten a test invite in the last couple days or is that perhaps it?

Hi @Abbie Whitlock I hope you are well! I was wondering if it would be possible to PM you with a question around interview technique? Thank you!
Question, in the why the firm question in an itnerview, is it ok to literally say the exact same things i said in my application form?
multiple qs, only a compulsory one, but w&c are giving VIs so quickly that I wasn't sure how important the written apps are for the recruitment team

Any insights on Reed Smith test and VI? Is it the format where you have most/least likely SJT, verbal/numerical, ending with video questions?
