    How to write an executive summary?

    How would one write an effective and punchy executive summary for a written exercise portion of an AC? What should it look like? What must be included? Should it be in bullet points or prose? Examples would be much appreciated. Many thanks!

    Flex Legal?

    For the test, the questions were basic contract law. I can't remember them specifically, but it wasn't too difficult. I skimmed my terrible first year notes that I haven't touched since 2020. If you remember basic features of a contract, such as consideration, acceptance etc, you should be good...

    Flex Legal?

    Apologies for the late reply! They replied quite quickly, iirc. I think within a week. Getting the interview took quite a long time though, since you had to book it yourself and most of the dates were taken. Took over a month or so. Many thanks! Haven't had many opportunities offered by Flex...

    Struggling to secure roles.

    Our situations are almost identical. I graduated in July 2022, and haven't secured a VC, TC or paralegal roles through Flex and other recruiters. I probably should prepare for the next cycle in September, and I hope someone can give some tips on how I can best achieve this

    How to Prepare for HSF's Online Test?

    Apologies Sammy, I can't quite remember how many questions there were. I think there were 3 sections, and the SJT and verbal reasoning sections were most important. It was quite a few questions, but I can't remember how many specifically. I think I barely made it through in the recommended time...
