[QUOTE="Amma Usman, post: 182924, member: 36740"] Hey [USER=29878]@ashwright[/USER], no problem, happy to folow-up! 1. Mock Assessments: - You had mentioned you are a law student, so I recommend utilizing your university’s careers service. They usually offer mock ACs/interview preparation. - I had actually also booked quite a couple via TCLA, which really helped. - I got random assessments via the internet and practiced myself, recording my answers and offering myself feedback. I had also gotten a couple of friends and professional colleagues to give me their feedback on things such as vocal intonation, body posture, etc. These are soft skills that are often unspoken about. 2. I had read quite a couple books when I had the time. The Money Machine, by Philip Coggan, was one. It offers a great insight into the City. Finimize also has little guides on the basics of financial concepts, which helped. In relation to the second part of your question, please don’t fear that you will not have all the answers. No one ever does! There may be moments during an AC where you may not know the answer to a question, and the best approach is just to own up to that, asking for more clarity on the situation. Through this, your interviewer can then provide more information through which you can then answer, supplementing your own knowledge with their explanation. Hope this helped :) [/QUOTE]
