[QUOTE="Hazal, post: 4529, member: 694"] Hey Daniel, So some pointers I picked up by attending this training session: [LIST] [*]The negotiation exercise is usually a sponsorship deal [*]They assess you on your contribution but also how you react to your team members. Are you supportive if they have forgotten their point/are being brutally questioned by the other side and do you bring in quieter members of the group if they are struggling? [*]Come to a consensus with your team together and consider multiple opinions [*]To echo the above, it's not about prior legal knowledge but knowing what is usually involved in this kind of deal might be really helpful, as it was for me [*]You can show your commercial knowledge in the negotiation by mentioning the value of the deal in brand/reputation terms [*]For the partner interviews, your opinion might be pushed at times. Unless the partner proves you're wrong, this is usually an opportunity for you to hold your ground and show your potential as a future lawyer [*]Written exercise suggested to be the hardest because of time constraints [/LIST] Not the most detailed response, granted, but if you have any questions about the negotiation in particular or anything I picked up from the firm (tbh you probably know way more than me), drop me a message :) [/QUOTE]
