[QUOTE="Jaysen, post: 2664, member: 1"] Hey Yminh, We are quite familiar with law firm video interviews (and we also dislike them!) I have given a few mock video interviews in the past, including for Eversheds. As time has gone by I know some law firms have increased the difficulty of their video interview questions. (Again, I was surprised when I discovered the difficulty of the Eversheds questions.) Some comments I have shared before, some of which you already covered: To be honest, the biggest one is to just practice. Practice having to respond to on-the-spot questions like: "Why do you want to be a trainee at [XYZ] firm?" or: "Describe a time you had to work under pressure." You don't need perfect answers but you do need to get used to being asked difficult questions. Then pausing, thinking and articulated a short, convincing answer. [/QUOTE]
