[QUOTE="S1kumo, post: 229037, member: 43467"] Hey [USER=43411]@Madison Pinewall[/USER], Firstly, congratulations on reaching the job simulation stage at Hogan Lovells, as I'm aware many people failed at the first assessment stage! As a future trainee at Hogan, I thought it would be useful to offer some advice here. I had some of my mentees in a similar situation, where they ended up discussing the same topic across both questions two and three due to the similarity between them. Despite this, they still managed to reach the assessment centre stage for the winter vacation scheme, so this isn't something to worry about at all. I recently spoke with graduate recruitment at my university's law fair, and they mentioned that they understand how artificial it can feel during a video interview, speaking to a screen. They also mentioned that candidates are looked at holistically across their performance on all the different stages, so you have nothing to worry about! If you think it might be useful, I'd be happy for you to reach out and share what you remember from your answers, and I can provide you with some helpful feedback.:) [/QUOTE]
