Ask 3 future trainees (Magic & Silver Circle, International Elite) ANYTHING! *New TCLA Team Members*
Hi everyone, hope you're well. I have an online assessment day coming up, and I was wondering if you could recommend any good places for practice case studies/written exercises?

Just had my Morgan Lewis interview - it is definitely quite straightforward and she is really nice so it's not something to stress over. I'd say just prep the usual why law etc, and look at some basic competency questions. Good luck!- pbyrne

@Jessica Booker - Hi Jessica - I received a telephone interview invite - it just said the date and time, and to email them if the phone number to call is different from my application form, but didn't ask for confirmation or anything.

Does anyone have any advice for the Morgan Lewis telephone interview?! I'd be very very grateful - just got rejected at final round from another firm and I'm feeling very nervous! Also does anyone know if this is standard - are they doing telephone interviews with everyone?- pbyrne

Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!
Would it be alright to talk about how I fit in (with specific examples) with the values of the firm? They recently underwent a rebrand and talk a lot about their values which is not something I've touched on in a huge amount of detail in the application form.- pbyrne

Unfortunately the cover letter is compulsory (along with the CV and application form) and I'm really struggling to write something that doesn't just repeat what's in my answers! Thanks for the insight, I'll aim to keep to 300!- pbyrne

I've talked a bit about work experience when giving examples for the other questions, but I'll expand a bit in the cover letter. Thanks! Just one more question if you don't mind - there are no word limits on the form. I could probably write reams but obviously don't want to bore grad rec, what...- pbyrne

Hi guys - hope you're all well. Hoping for some advice on how to explain why I'm interested in litigation/disputes as that's the focus of the firm I'm applying to. I've spent the last 3 years as a litigation paralegal so I have a pretty good understanding of why I'm just not sure I'm...- pbyrne
