Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!
I would echo this. Unfortunately I receive too many PMs that it's difficult for me to respond to them all. If it's a generic question, please post in the forum and tag me. If it's something personal or can't be answered in the forums, it would be great if you can email...- Jaysen

Hearing Back from Law Firms, Assessment Centres & Interview Tips - 2019 - 2020
As Jess said, I'd be surprised if it's phrased this way unless you had indicated some kind of interest in consulting or made a general statement about your interest in commercial law that sounded like it could crossover to any finance profession. Like you, I can't say I know much about what...- Jaysen

Gowling WLG
I may have said this before but I see a lot of answers to this question that are too generic (talking about Gowling generally). I’d make sure your answer is 100% focused on this new public sector client in the health sector. Consider what kind of needs that client would have and then use what...- Jaysen

Addleshaw Goddard Question
No problem, I think it depends on how broadly you interpret 'legal issues'. I'd class new regulations as legal issues. (Although at the time, with LIBOR, I was actually referring to the legal consequences for banks who manipulated the rate.)- Jaysen

Osborne Clarke VS Question
I love it when candidates show they've thought about a question before asking, so good job! 1. Plan sounds great. 2. I agree, this question can seem quite difficult. You have flexibility with your approach provided you make sure you cover all parts of the question. Yep, so beyond just a...- Jaysen

Mishcon de Reya issue question
The first point is also what makes it stand out to me. Its history in private client work feeds into some pretty unique cases (like the Article 50 litigation) and you can see that reflected in how the firm brands itself. I believe Mishcon is also more litigation-focused compared to the...- Jaysen
