Even though the firm doesn’t have offices in the US, it might still be worth considering the potential impact of Trump’s tariffs or trade policies on the firm’s clients in Europe and the UK. This is particularly worth thinking about given the US’s significant influence on global trade. That said, it’s important to approach this topic thoughtfully and with a neutral, factual tone. To structure your response, I’d suggest the following approach:<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">State the policy or trade instrument clearly: Briefly explain what the tariffs or trade reforms involve, ensuring the your interviewers understand the context.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Highlight specific impacts: Focus on 2-3 concrete ways the policy might affect the firm’s clients in the regions it operates. For example, will it increase costs for clients reliant on imports from the US? Could it disrupt supply chains or even create opportunities for clients in certain sectors?</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Connect to the firm’s role: Explain how the firm is well-positioned to help clients navigate these challenges or opportunities, whether through their expertise in trade law, cross-border transactions, or regulatory compliance.</li> </ol>Lastly, I'd encourage you to avoid being too broad or vague when discussing a topic like tariffs. For example, instead of saying, 'Trump’s tariffs will affect clients,' try to be specific. How much has he promised for these tariffs to go up by? Have there been promises to impose tariffs on imports in particular sectors or countries that could affect clients or the firm in question? By being more specific, you can show a deeper understanding of the issues and demonstrates your ability to analyse policy impacts effectively. Overall, though, as long as you're neutral in tone and informative, this can make for a really compelling answer. Again, good luck with your AC!</blockquote>
