Hi - that was me that deleted the post.Annoyingly, my previous message has been deleted because I disclosed the CC video interview question, even though they disclose it to us well in advance! So it's no more of a secret than any other application question.
Back to the point - @Jessica Booker or anyone who can help - was hoping for help on why CC has emphasised 'in the region' in their video interview question. They mention it twice. Could you shed any light on how you would address this?
Sorry, but I cannot repeat the full question here, or it will likely be deleted again. DM me if you would like it. As ever, THANK YOU so very much.
Ah gotcha, ok it just seemed a very strange and notable emphasis on 'this region' given they are such a global firm. You know what it's like, we are supposed to very clearly address every part of the question, and directing part of my limited-time answer to why I would want to be a CC Lawyer in London (rather than say, Hong Kong) just seems very odd.Hi - that was me that deleted the post.
Unfortunately we do ask that video interview questions are not specifically shared on the forum - we can’t keep a track of which firms share video interview information or not, and so we just blanket remove it.
if they are asking you to talk about a location, it likely means the question is used across various TC locations and therefore they want you to explain why you are specifically interested/applying to that particular location.
I would say it’s because every firm’s offices has its own specific strong suits. CC could be Band 1 in Finance departments in London for example but Band 4 in Hong Kong. I think it’s moreso emphasising why CC on a UK level, rather than speaking about say deals, departments, or matters originating from their other offices.Ah gotcha, ok it just seemed a very strange and notable emphasis on 'this region' given they are such a global firm.

It may seem odd, but it’s going to be very important to them. Given they are a popular firm (and with international candidates) they will want to make sure they find people who have a long-term motivation/commitment to the region they are recruiting for.Ah gotcha, ok it just seemed a very strange and notable emphasis on 'this region' given they are such a global firm.

I don’t track these type of details so am not best placed to advise.@Jessica Booker have you heard of any Stephenson Harwood interviews for their WVS?
Work experience is a job where you have made a commitment to turn up and deliver things that are set for you by others.What's the difference between work experience and positions of responsibility?
Thank you Jessica!!!Work experience is a job where you have made a commitment to turn up and deliver things that are set for you by others.
Positions of responsibility are the things you choose to do - usually your extra curriculars but it’s just really a broader term for people who are not necessarily in education. It could be things you do within work but that you are not contracted to do (eg part of an internal network group/charity fundraising) or it could be activities that have no connection to your education (volunteering at a local place of worship/local food bank).
