As an interview question, would it be appropriate to ask whether Covid-19 has had a positive impact on the firm in any way (and if so, how/why?). I ask this as I can think of some positive outcomes of the pandemic (I am taking an extremely optimistic approach here) - e.g. fast-tracking the...
Ok, thanks @Jessica Booker :). Is there any need to link back the topic to law firms? I ask this as it is solely a topic of choice. Yes, I have. I presume the same sort of structure applies to TC presentations? It’s been so long since I’ve done a presentation…
Fab - thanks Jess. When you say balance, do you mean just a balance between the points I plan on talking about?
I guess it would be okay to do a presentation on crypto and use its benefits/challenges/and implications it has in a wider context as the reasons why I am interested in it? I've...
Hi @Jessica Booker, I hope you are well.
I have an assessment day coming up (for a regional firm) and I've been asked to prepare a presentation on a topic of my choice (e.g. any interest/hobby). I am really interested in crypto (for investment and fundamental reasons) - e.g. blockchain...
Phew - I was expecting the worst i.e. retraction of job offer! Yes - informal work experience placement, three years ago. The most important role was my paralegal one - which I definitely have the accurate dates for. So I'll just let the reference company know, and not my employer? Thanks...
Hi @Jessica Booker, I have just come across this thread and I would be extremely grateful for your perspective! I secured a position with a firm and I am going through employment reference checks. I stated the accurate date (one-week) for one of my placements for my checks. But on my CV, I...
Hi all, reviving this thread with the hope of gaining some clarity on the following (bit of a long one - apologies!).
I am applying for a smaller regional firm and one of the questions is “why us”. Whilst it is easier to find key clients/cases etc to back up points on my applications for...
Sorry @Jessica Booker one last question... as the firm specifically asks for the name of the organisation I worked for... would I still be able to talk about being a self-employed piano tutor? If so, could I just put "self-employed" under that part?
Hi all
I think this is the most appropriate thread for my question.
I am in the process of filling out the work experience section on an application. The firm asks for work experience (two different roles) and reasons for leaving. For the first experience, I put down my most recent position...
Hi Jaysen!
I signed up to Gold and submitted my application on the "Application Review" page just now.
Just wanted to confirm I have done this right.
Thanks :)
Noted! Variety is what I’ve gone for in all of my other questions, I was just unsure if I should come at this from a different angle. Thanks so much Jess :)
Okay, thanks Jess :) last question - would it be okay to just use me experience as a general assistant and give several examples of times when I demonstrated them?
Hi @Jessica Booker, I hope you have had a good start to the week!
I know I have recently posted on here, but I somehow missed a whole question on one of my applications (I am still in shock) and was hoping to get your perspective on the question: "please provide examples of when you have...
Hi Jaysen
Are fast track application reviews for Premium Members only? The standard application review link states that it’s for Premium only, but the fast track doesn’t? The deadline for my application is coming up and I would really really like to have it reviewed before submitting! Stressful...
