Hi! I was wondering if anyone here might know how similar the assessment day for the NRF Business & Legal Ops scheme would be to that of the NRF VS/TC assessment day like whether the group exercise and case study would be the same, and if the nature of the interview may be similar.
I'm not really sure if this is the right place to create this thread, so if anyone here knows anyone that has gone through the process for this graduate scheme or knows of any good information/resources out there about it, then I'd really appreciate if you could point me in this direction! There really doesn't seem to be much out there for the alternative legal career space graduate schemes in terms of resources for preparation.
Thanks in advance! :)

Hi! I've also been invited to the assessment day and wondering how to prepare. maybe we can join forces and try to figure out how to perform well?
Hi Elsa! Have only just seen this. Yes, let's do that! I have just private messaged you.

I'm so surprised that the AC is meant to be in two days and they still haven't provided us with any information regarding what the day will contain... How are we meant to prepare when we don't know what we are preparing for!

Hi,

Not entirely sure how this forum works, but I have a video interview for this exact role and was wondering if anyone had any tips/ any potential questions to share? It's in January, but they have provided no info whatsoever.

Thanks in advance ;)))
