    I don't see why this is obvious tbh. They aren't going to revoke your offer.

    Dubai is in UAE London is in the UK - and is one of the financial/legal capitals of the world night and day really for both career and just general life. You can name the firms as well as it will be easier for people to advise. You have received job offers from law firms - not MI5!

    Tbh I don't see the relevance of this response to my original post. The point I'm making is that a video interview for a paralegal role, that won't be the most competitive, is excessive.
