[QUOTE="lawnoob, post: 104825, member: 9815"] Hi everyone, I have a first stage paralegal zoom interview coming up next week. The HR administrator let me know that the interview with GR will of "job duties of this role and your previous experiences" and will only last 30 minutes. Does anyone know what sort of questions they might specifically ask? Does this mean that it is a competency based interview, and would I use STAR? I've not had any previous experience with any of the job duties included but am very eager and willing to learn as it will be my first legal job. How can I get this across clearly if they ask me "do you know how to do XYZ"? Should I say that I don't have exact experience in doing these things but then give example of transferrable skills through positions of responsibility, extra curricular and hospitality work experience? I've also applied to paralegal roles with other law firms, but have not heard back yet. Is it likely that they might ask if I have applied with anyone else? Would it seem like I just want any job and am not interested in this firm only if I say yes? Should I say I haven't heard back yet as I've only applied in the last two weeks? When asking this question, what are they really looking out for..? People say to ask for feedback after an interview, does this mean I should ask for feedback after every stage (assuming I get through to more stages after this)? If yes, at what point do I ask? Would it be when they ask if I have any further questions, or during the post-interview thank you email? What are some good paralegal questions to ask at the end of an interview? Would it be a bit different to questions for VS/TCs? Sorry for so many questions, it would help a lot if anyone has answers to any part! [/QUOTE]
