Message: <blockquote data-quote="Abbie Whitlock" data-source="post: 241623" data-attributes="member: 42112">Hi!The main advice I was given in relation to this is to ask questions that you can't find from the firm's website or promotional materials - this could be topics such as:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Training and Development: how trainees are supported day-to-day, how feedback is given, or what tends to differentiate trainees who really excel at the firm</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Firm Culture: collaboration between teams, the level of responsibility given to trainees, or how people are supported during busy periods</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Forward-Looking: what challenges and opportunities the firm is anticipating in the next few years and how trainees might be exposed to those.</li> </ul>I also found it helps to ask a few more personal questions to the interviewers, even if you don't know who they will be before the actual interview. This could be things such as "What have you personally enjoyed most about working at the firm?" or "What draw you to the firm?". I'd also remain flexible - if you prepare questions in advance but have questions come to mind during the actual interview, it's better to tailor them slightly to the interviewer. This will show genuine engagement with them, and show a real interest!Best of luck! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
