[QUOTE="Jaysen, post: 4511, member: 1"] Stephenson Harwood Interview 2018 [B]When was your Stephenson Hardwood interview? [/B] October 2018 [B] What was it for? [/B] Vacation scheme [B]Please describe the interview process at Stephenson Harwood.[/B] The interview process is in two parts. The first part is an interview with two members of Graduate Recruitment or HR. This interview consists of a number of questions, which I think are split into three parts. The first set of questions are are mainly competency questions, so I used lots of STAR examples. The second part of the interview is based on your motivation for becoming a lawyer and the final part of the interview is based on Stephenson Harwood. After getting through the first stage of interviews you are invited back to an assessment day. On the assessment day there are between 6-8 candidates, but there is no group task. The group are split into two, and one half will go and do a written task, whilst the others begin with their interview. The written task was straight forward and did not require any legal knowledge. It did include a balance sheet so make sure you have a basic understanding of these. Next, I moved on to my presentation and interview. A week before the assessment day you are given a presentation question and you are expected to prepare for the presentation in advance. Following your 10 minute presentation to a partner and a member of HR, you are asked a few questions on it, and then you move straight on to your interview. The interview was fairly similar to the first interview, with motivations for becoming a lawyer and why you wanted to work for Stephenson Harwood. Finally, the last interview was based on the written task I did in the morning. These questions were quite fiery, and you should expected to be questioned on why you wrote certain things. [B]What advice would you give to future applicants for the Stephenson Harwood interview?[/B] With the interview following the written task, if you've realised that something you might have originally written is wrong don't try and defend your wrong answer. You can admit that after reflecting you probably would have changed your answer. For the presentation make sure that you are presenting on something you are genuinely interested in and don't feel too restricted to the question as it is easy to make any commercial topic relate to the question.
