    Ideally, I wouldn't do a word-for-word repeat, but it's no issue if the reasons are the same - it would make sense given you were providing your best reasons in the first interview!

    This is great news - well done on the interview. I appreciate it's harder to know what to expect when there is less information, but I'd take comfort in the fact that it's a short interview and designed to provide insight into the perspective of a lawyer. I think you're right. I'd typically...
