[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 245294, member: 42112"] Hello! Generally, I would aim for around 2-3 minutes - if you feel your answer is slightly longer than you wanted, it might help to start by signposting (e.g. I am motivated to work at this firm for X, Y, Z) and then move onto discussing 2-3 well-rounded reasons individually. This helps keep you on track and ensures that you cover all of the points you set out to! Just make sure that you rehearse beforehand so that you have a rough idea of how long it takes, and that you can discuss all of those points in that time frame. The interviewers may prompt you or ask follow-up questions, which can then allow you to go into detail on things that you may have had to cut to save time :) [/QUOTE]
