[QUOTE="Nicole, post: 954, member: 16"] Dechert vac scheme AC: This is in two parts since they split up the AC and the interview bit: AC: nothing really too hard, the written exercise is very much standard stuff and they're pretty much looking just to see if you can write in a structured and clear manner. The group exercise is pretty tough. One thing which I was aware of which others probably weren't is the need to fit in wider commercial knowledge into the group exercise (mine was pitching an investment to a hedge fund board aka the group and then pitching as a group the investment we all agreed on to the interview panel). Also being really clear in how you communicate and of course being a good listener to others was important Interview: this was really straightforward, one thing which helped was knowing beforehand the fact that they are going to question you a load on your "strategy" (what other firms you applied to and why) so having a really coherent and well thought through plan of why XYZ firms helps.
