[QUOTE="Amma Usman, post: 206155, member: 36740"] Hey, Well done on getting the AC. [B][I]Interview[/I][/B] -this will likely be your standard competency and motivational questions. My main tip - when talking about your experiences, bring out what specific skills and things you learnt, which will help you succeed as a trainee. Proactivity? Organisational management? Knowledge you gained about a law firm’s clients/commercial awareness? Mention it and always remember to link it to how you endeavour to [U]add value [/U]to their firm. At the end of it, you could ask your interviewers thoughtful questions that aren’t easily accessible online. Like insights about their own practice or their thoughts on something you discussed prior. [I][B]Business simulation - [/B][/I]look at the question first. Not everything you are given will be relevant, so adjust your reading approach to making notes and comments of the relevant things you want to discuss in the debrief. It’s only 15 minutes, so you will need to start with the strongest points first. [I][B]Case study -[/B][/I] same advice as with the simulation, only that this may require more structure. It’s a presentation, so starting with the appropriate formalities, saying what you’re going to cover, introduction to issues, your findings (assessing pros and cons of going ahead with a deal, for example), conclusion (brief and covering why you are standing on a specific point). Goodluck! [/QUOTE]
