[QUOTE="Flanker01, post: 152298, member: 28503"] For me it was only one interview, since I was applying for the HK office instead of the UK one. The interview was definitely not what I expected, since I thought I’d get asked about something technical (legal questions, commercial awareness etc). Throughout the interview the partners were more interested in my personal life studying abroad in the UK, my hobbies and why I didn’t do anything for August (Had a major surgery back in HK, was stuck in a hospital and literally could not speak at all). No technical questions were asked, but they did ask me why I wanted to be a regulatory lawyer, since I wrote that on my cover letter. I’m not sure how many people were there in the same application stage as I was. I asked the partner who was interviewing me about it, but she said she wasn’t too sure as well. Overall, really chill experience. I think they were more keen on finding the right people to work with then than anything at the interview stage. Again, do note that I applied to the HK office, so things may very well differ in the UK stream. [/QUOTE]
