Hello everyone! I have just been invited to Eversheds Sutherland's video interview and I was wondering if anyone has any advice or can relay any experience with the process? I am quite anxious, as the the application consisted solely of competency-based questions, I wonder if it is the same for the video interview.
 
Hi

Happy to help.

There will be 5 questions. You will have 1 min prep time and 2 mins to answer each question.

2 questions are future focussed. Explain what would you do in the described scenarios.

3 questions are past on your past experiences.

They will be strengths-based questions, and you will be expected to explain what you would/would not enjoy.

Hope this helps.

Best regards

Fez

Hello Fez!

Thank you very much for your reply, that was extremely helpful! Thank you both for your help!
 
VI Tip - practice for general questions like - why law, why commercial law, why firm

And know examples of competency skills :)

I practice using the mirror or record myself on camera a couple of times then review my answers.

You can memorise most of it - but try to not sound too robotic during the actual VI

Take pauses when you speak
