UpdateLast week I:Brainstormed and bulletpointed lots of interview answersStarted my Quizlet question bankAttended a live TCLA session on confidence in interviewsDid a mock interview with my Grow mentor and a brief one with the uni career service and received some useful feedbackBooked my TCLA mock interviewReached out to a Slaughters trainee and scheduled a call with him FridayYesterday I went to a Slaughters networking event held for winter workshop participants so we could see the office and get to know each other / talk to trainees and partners at the firm (as it was moved to virtual due to train strikes last minute). 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:Practice video interviews by using simulators such as the TCLA onePrepare 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 VIPrepare questions and make sure I get the most out of my call with the Slaughters traineeKeep up my commercial awareness (been slacking a bit recently) and try to complete another TCLA course
