Hi all,

I have been invited to an interview for a Paralegal role. I have been told the interview will involve reviewing my cv in detail. This is my first official interview for a legal role and I haven’t experienced a cv based interview before.

I have heard sometimes interviewers ask you to talk through your cv. I was wondering if anyone can give me any tips on how to approach this question. Do I speak about the skills I have gained from each role and then explain how it links to the role I am applying to?
