[QUOTE="Amma Usman, post: 217361, member: 36740"] Hey, Here are my main tips for each: [B]Group Exercise:[/B] [LIST] [*]Work with your group. Don't be the odd person out that doesn't work in a team. Working together improves the quality of your response to your assessors - many is always better than one. You can bounce ideas off each other, and learn so much. Any employer would prefer to work with, and hire people that know how to work well as a team. [*]If you know the subject matter of the exercise, then research well on it. If not, keep up on any general commercial trends, as I am very sure that one of them will pop out, or at least you could weave it in somewhere. [/LIST] [B]Case Study Interview:[/B] [LIST] [*]Practice common case study types - corporate, M&A, article discussions on trendy topics, etc. Know these concepts well. It's okay if you don't know everything - law firm's don't expect you to at this stage. Ask questions in your interview if you need to. Engage in a thoughtful discussion, like asking [B][I]YOUR[/I][/B] interviewers what [B][I]THEY[/I][/B] think about a particular topic. Obviously only do this once you've answered the question they asked you about to the best of your ability. [/LIST] Best wishes, and congrats on the invite. Let us know if you have any more specific questions ;) [/QUOTE]
