[QUOTE="Jaysen, post: 10670, member: 1"] Hi Vicky, This is the only thing I could find for the Bakers interview: In terms of general video interview advice: [LIST] [*]Most candidates struggle with the VI because they find the format so uncomfortable. [*]Practice doing a video interview as many times as you can (in other words, set your webcam up, time yourself and give yourself a set time to and record your answer). Watch it back: do you project your voice? Are your answers clear? How are your gestures? [*]Look at the webcam rather than the screen (you come across more personable). [*]Prepare for the standard questions (“why this firm?” or “why commercial law”), although increasingly we’ve seen harder questions come up in VI’s, so practice a variety of questions. The key is to stay composed when you're answering questions outside your comfort zone. [*]Keep your answers concise. Use examples to back up your points. Be specific. Breathe. [*]Smile: you want to try to get across your personality/enthusiasm. [*]You may find these threads helpful: [URL]https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/in-need-for-video-interview-advice.581/and[/URL] [URL]https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/free-tlp-video-interview-simulator.400[/URL] [*]Rosie Watterson also has some great resources to practice this: [URL]https://applyshinewin.com/2017/12/27/practical-help-for-video-interviews/[/URL] [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
