[QUOTE="AGB2060, post: 244907, member: 43222"] When I say know why law, I MEAN IT, at least for mine. I wasn't directly asked the usual why commercial lawyer but so so many questions emphasising it What made you study law at uni What made you do the switch from X to wanting to be commercial lawyer Why not that original career Why not x career (based on experiences) Well if that's your reason, then why not Y career? Just have logical answers and conclusions to why your journey has gone the way it has. Overall, it is VERY partner specific and each interview will vary. Be prepared to talk about your HS subject choices, Uni choices, fav modules etc. I was also weirdly asked how many hours I study per week etc haha Goodluck! [/QUOTE]
