Thanks Dheepa!First off, congratulations on your interview.I would be exceptionally careful about simply stating that Covid has caused a "slowdown in M&A" - in my opinion, this isn't the case, and the opposite is actually true in terms of certain types of M&A (PE M&A, distressed M&A, pre-packs etc), so I would only chase down this alleyway if you really have the facts and statistics to back it up.As much as Travers are known for being a PE/ corporate firm, the disputes team is ever-growing and exceptionally good at what they do, too - don't limit yourself to only discussing corporate issues. Can you think of the opportunities and challenges that might exist for a firm in litigation/ dispute resolution space in the current circumstances, and the fallout from Covid in months and years to come?
