Simmons & Simmons video interview

[Ali2020]

From last cycle (not sure if the same this cycle):

1. Tell me about yourself
2. A favourite business you admire and talk about why you admire it, the opportunities and risks for the business
3. A question relating to ambition or collegiality and how you have demonstrated it/the importance of it
4. A question relating to challenge/ how do you challenge people and would you feel comfortable doing so?
5. Why are you interested in law and what will you be doing as a trainee solicitor day to day

Hi

Thanks for providing the (possible) questions! I was wondering if anyone could give some night as to how to answer/structure your answer to the question on "tell us about yourself"?

Thanks!!!

Hey sorry hope this is not late but the trick is to be relaxed and telling them what or who your best friends say you are. You need not be too serious [Disclamer: This is my opinion, I will not be held liable in a court of law for my advice; lol have fun]

I thought my VI went fairly well, but I received a PFO the day I did my VI so.... Feeling really dejected tbh, been rejected at interview stage a couple of times now and I do want an AC experience at least!
