[QUOTE="Ellisha, post: 43213, member: 8762"] this is the kind of question that I find particularly hard in situational interviews/tests. E.g. you've been working on a project and are almost done, but then your boss tells you that there's been a massive change and you need to start over again. Or, something like helping your client pay as low taxes as possible. Are these the kinds of things you should be vocally skeptical about? If you're told to do something that may sound a bit suspect, are you supposed to inquire further as to the reason for that task or would that be considered as over-inflitrating? I know that you're not supposed to just leave your moral compass at the door when you work at a law firm but I also would've thought that partners might be weary about hiring someone who might be too quick to challenge their bosses.
