I’d like to share some tips that helped me prepare and pass the video interview.When it comes to content, it’s essential to spend some time reflecting on why you want to join Willkie specifically and what sets them apart from other US-headquartered firms in London. Understanding their unique teams and areas of practice, and identifying which ones resonate with you, can make your responses more compelling. I found it helpful to thoroughly research the firm, writing down and familiarising myself with a variety of motivational points. I also had a think about any news stories that might be relevant to them and any skills that I could bring to the table as a trainee. This kind of comprehensive preparation allowed me to draw on my research when faced with questions that I hadn’t prepared for in advance but were related to the firm.Outside of content, I think it's really important to practise recording yourself either on a voice notes app or on camera. This will help you identify any areas of improvement in terms of your delivery and give you an indication of whether you're efficiently using the time limits imposed by many video interviews. For instance, you can sense check whether you're making adequate eye contact, whether you've added too many or too little depth to the points you're raising, whether your answer has a decent structure, and so forth. Again, when practising, I focused on why I was interested in joining the firm, what I could bring as a trainee, and discussing a news story that related to the firm and its clients. This kind of practice really helped me ensure that I could clearly and succinctly convey my motivations and research within the typical one or two-minute timeframe that most video interviews impose on candidates.I hope these tips help you feel more confident and prepared for your next interview. Best of luck! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />  <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
