[QUOTE="butters, post: 214678, member: 40758"] Hi, went through the written assessment with GLD a few years ago. I had to review 4 different scenarios within 45 minutes and answer 4-5 questions. The scenarios included a piece of email from a stakeholder (like a MP), another one was a piece of draft legislation, and then there were around two letters (or emails, I don't completely remember). The scenarios were different but interlinked with each other, i.e. it was something along the lines of a person who wished to enter a career, and the rules changed, as well as an MPs needing advice on that new provision, with other people being involved in that scenario. I was supposed to respond to the emails, give advice and answering the questions based on the scenarios given. I needed to apply my reasoning using the information given to you and common sense (there was no law that directly affected your case) and explain why you reached that advice/conclusion. Time was definitely not enough so I would suggest to make sure to read and start working on it immediately! I was then asked to explain my written assessment during the interview and why I reached those conclusions, as well as what I would have changed if the scenario was different. Hope this helps any one else who may have the same question. [/QUOTE]
