    No, it’s mostly focused on the firm and then competency / strength type questions

    They said they are holding telephone interviews through the first two weeks of January so I would not jump to any conclusions.

    Just finished my NRF telephone interview and I have no idea how I've done. We started a little late because of some logistical issues and that meant that my first answer needed to be compressed a bit and she had to ask me to wrap up. Is that fatal?

    ah, ignore that. Apparently, the portal just doesn't like safari. On Chrome, it lets me progress.

    It won’t let me complete it. Says I have to wait for an email link. 😏

    Those who can see an Irwin Mitchell VI in the portal but haven’t got an email with the link, are you contacting GR or waiting?

    Oh, me too! Surprising because I only did the test on Friday. Hopefully, we'll get the email tomorrow.

    I have absolutely no clue how I did at the Reed Smith VI. I didn’t stumble or, a specialism of mine in past VIs, trail off mid sentence and stare blankly at the camera. But the questions were framed in such a way, I’m not entirely sure whether I nailed even one answer. Ugh.

    Does the Irwin Mitchell test have a video interview component or is it like Linklaters Capp test (SJT + WG)?

    What kinds of examples help demonstrate integrity? Everything I can think of relates better to reliability than integrity.
