    On my VS last year I was told that you don't need to present all the details but rather simply explain your point across. May be different for different firms/partners because I think a lot of it depends on the personal preference of who requested it!

    Has anyone done the CMS video interview? I got an invite on Friday but have yet to do it. I usually hate VIs so if anyone has any tips I would really appreciate them!
