[QUOTE="AnnonymousOtter, post: 229618, member: 43447"] The core benefit of doing a TI is human interaction. You can pick up on tonal cues, ask for brief clarification if needed, and build a more natural rapport. It feels less like a performance and more like a dialogue. A VI can often make you feel like you're speaking into a void which can heighten anxiety, and cause some people to perform less adequately. Any GR team that views a reasonable adjustment request negatively is failing in its duty to ensure fair access. In practice, GR teams handle these requests confidentially and routinely. Using an adjustment you're entitled to does not mark your application down, it simply ensures the assessment measures what it's supposed to. The format is different, but the assessment criteria are the same. You are still being evaluated on your motivation, competencies, and commercial awareness. The TI might allow for slightly more nuance in a conversation, but the benchmark for success doesn't change. The firm is assessing your suitability for the role of a solicitor, which leads to your next point. Good luck on your applications!! [/QUOTE]
