[QUOTE="Jacob Miller, post: 64652, member: 5063"] Hi, thanks for reaching out. Congratulations on securing your interview! I would tend to say you're along the right lines with what you're prepping for. I would advise consulting my [URL='https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/definitive-guide-to-law-firm-interviews-monday-article-series.3286/']"Definitive Guide to Interviews"[/URL] article on these topics - there's nothing else I can really add on the points discussed there. In terms of my own prep, I just memorised key examples and how they related to key questions. I personally advise against trying to remember big scripts as this runs the risk of overloading your brain. Instead, remember key examples/ structures etc. From what I remember (the major caveat being that I interviewed over a year ago now), I was asked a "tell me about a story..." question as opposed to being specifically led into discussing one topic. They might vary that by interviewer/ interviewee, though, or the process may simply have changed a bit since my interview cycle. If this is now the case, it's unlikely that they'll ask you to discuss anything obscure, so just ensure you're staying abreast of all the main commercial awareness-type stories/ current events and you should be fine. In terms of how I approach ensuring that I cover all angles, generally I'd use a mind-map with the different stakeholders and just consider implications and ramifications on each group individually. Hope this helps! [/QUOTE]
