[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 225889, member: 42112"] Hello! I have quoted some posts below that might be helpful in terms of preparing for video interviews, so hopefully they are a useful starting point! I would also recommend this [URL='https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/a-complete-guide-for-competency-interview-preparation.9380/']forum post[/URL] from Andrei, which is really great for competency style questions! In terms of preparation, with a 5-day deadline I found that consistent practice worked far better than cramming the night before. I'd usually spend an hour or two each day looking over common questions, practising responses, and doing some focused research on the firm. Breaking the prep down into manageable chunks made a much bigger difference to my performance compared to when I tried to do everything last-minute and for hours on end. I hope that helps - I always found that VIs were something I got better at over time, so I'm sure your hard work will pay off! :) [/QUOTE]
