    Hello all, can anyone shed some light on the written assessment part of the interview process for a Bristows TC?

    I've read here that in the past it has taken the form of a client email advising on GDPR issues. Anyone with experience speculate as what to expect and any tips?

    Thanks!

    Well done for getting to the next stage! When did you have your interview?

    Hi, I also did the written exercise on Monday - I've now been asked to complete a problem-based exercise. I was under the impression that the selection process was written exercise then invite to second interview if your performance was good, not this extra problem based written assessment. I've emailed recruitment but havent had a response. Anyone got any answers?!

    I was wondering the same! Can you let us know what GR says? :)

    I also thought this! What did GR say? I did my problem based exercise today. How did you find it?

    Same, I was super confused because the info on their website hasn't changed -- did GR get back to you in the end?

    Hi, I havent heard back either but I also emailed GR and they said that invitation to the second written assessment which seems to have been a new addition this year is no indication of performance from the first exercise and the two are assessed together to decide invitations to final interview.
