    Ahh thank you! That's great to know :) I'm assuming the questions are just motivation and competency based?

    There was 1 min 30 secs to answer, no chance to re-record. There was deffo a practice question to help you get settled. But I don't remember how much time we had to prepare for each question. Good luck! :)

    I did it last year, they have a random question bank so you can get any two questions. I definitely remember competency questions coming up. But they differed for everyone! Don't think commerical awareness comes up though

    This is so different to what my friend had! She was asked specifically about legal developments and commerical awareness stories. She interviewed for the winter vac scheme but they asked her to join the spring one

    My friend did it and she mentioned to definitely brush up on your commerical awareness and keep up with legal developments :)
