It was very informative and I really enjoyed getting to know the other participants and hear about everyones backgrounds and TC stages. I also received an email earlier tonight inviting me to Bakers VI!!:) I am excited about progressing to the next stage, but VIs are also my worst fear as i've performed terribly in them before (at some point last year when doing a VI with pwc for non-legal work experience I just said sorry mid-recording because I felt so embarrassed about my answers haha) This week my goals are: [LIST] [*]Practice video interviews by using simulators such as the TCLA one [*]Prepare more answers to competency / situational questions as I know these tend to come up in Bakers VI (or so i've heard) [*]Complete the Bakers VI [*]Prepare questions and make sure I get the most out of my call with the Slaughters trainee [*]Keep up my commercial awareness (been slacking a bit recently) and try to complete another TCLA course [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
