Hi [USER=7019]@Numerius Negidius[/USER]


Congrats on getting your interview!



From my experience, any questions relating to contract law will usually be asked in the context of a M&A transaction. As such, you will be tested on your knowledge of key contractual terms and clauses. Therefore, to prepare, I'd think about questions such as:



- What is the difference between warranties, indemnities, and undertakings?


- What is the difference between a condition and a warranty?


- What is a condition precedent and what impact may this have in a contract?


- What is the doctrine of frustration and what are its impacts?


- What role do clauses such as a; force majeure, non-solicit and non-compete clause play?



From my range of experiences, I've never been asked to cite a case but if you are still unsure perhaps graduate recruitment might be able to offer some more clarity.



I hope this helps! Please feel free to ask any more questions you may have.



Best of luck!
