Hearing Back from Law Firms, Assessment Centres & Interview Tips - 2019 - 2020

[RJ24]

Hi guys for firms which allow you to re-record your video interview answers does it matter how many attempts you take? I think I just redid an answer to the same question about 100 times and I am worried that the firm will see that it took me so long to get to a coherent answer haha!

they can probably see the time it was recorded and the difference in time compared to the earlier answer. They clearly don’t care though if you can re-record as many times as you want.

Does anyone have advice for the CMS video interview?

when did you hear from them?

 

[Lawyerwithadream]

They've suggested 45 mins for the SST and 50 mins for the VRT, I think I spent total about 1 hour 15 minutes?
I didn't really prepare for it, the SST is the same as any other and I just treated the VRT like the LNAT, essentially a comprehension and critical thinking test.

Thank you

Anyone got tips for AG assessment centre?

there are lots of things you can talk about for the case study/partner briefing but make sure you don’t just talk about them all generally. As there just isn’t enough time for you to go through all of them in detail, pick out the most important things and go into them in depth. I made the mistake of thinking just because I had a lot to say and picked out everything there was I was doing well haha

Does anyone know when V&E will start sending out AC invites? Or are they still sending out VI invites and reviewing them for the next while?

Have you done the VI? Any insight on what to expect?

If it’s not on their website, email them. If the deadline is approaching, call them up tomorrow morning. Good luck!

Hi George, I haven’t heard anything from Milbank as well. But they’re non-rolling, so I don't think we will hear back for a couple weeks
