Message: <blockquote data-quote="Jaysen" data-source="post: 10909" data-attributes="member: 1">Hi Laura,I don't think many candidates are familiar with that firm (hence the lack of responses!). I can only provide some general comments, which you may have seen before:Video interview tips:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Most candidates struggle with the VI because they find the format so uncomfortable.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Practice doing a video interview as many times as you can (in other words, set your webcam up, time yourself and give yourself a set time to and record your answer). Watch it back: do you project your voice? Are your answers clear? How are your gestures?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Look at the webcam rather than the screen (you come across more personable).</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Prepare for the standard questions (“why this firm?” or “why commercial law”), although increasingly we’ve seen harder questions come up in VI’s, so practice a variety of questions. The key is to stay composed when you're answering questions outside your comfort zone.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Keep your answers concise. Use examples to back up your points. Be specific. Breathe.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Smile: you want to try to get across your personality/enthusiasm.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">You may find these threads helpful: <a href="https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/in-need-for-video-interview-advice.581/and" target="_blank">https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/in-need-for-video-interview-advice.581/and</a><a href="https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/free-tlp-video-interview-simulator.400" target="_blank">https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/free-tlp-video-interview-simulator.400</a></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Rosie Watterson also has some great resources to practice this: <a href="https://applyshinewin.com/2017/12/27/practical-help-for-video-interviews/" target="_blank">https://applyshinewin.com/2017/12/27/practical-help-for-video-interviews/</a></li> </ul></blockquote>
