[QUOTE="SLKEJRWOI97, post: 46327, member: 4782"] Hi all! Had my phone interview earlier today. Here's some insight: [LIST] [*]No prep required - I wasn't asked any competency questions (name a time when you X) nor motivational questions (why Mayer Brown). [*]They genuinely just want to know your honest answer to strength-based scenarios/questions. It speaks to you more as a person and your experiences from ECs, PoRs, work experience. [*]You're actually marked down if you seem like you've over-rehearsed so there's a fine line between providing evidence and providing STAR level evidence (with the latter being something you shouldn't do). [*]It's a very relaxed / chilled out interview. Feels like you're having a chat rather than you're in an interview (as cliche as that is, this actually is very much that). [/LIST] Overall, it's an interview that's quite difficult to gauge whether you've done well on it or not. I don't feel like I bombed it but I don't feel like I smashed it, if ygm? They said that they'll get back to interviewees "as soon as possible". Hope this helps and good luck! [/QUOTE]
