[QUOTE="George Maxwell, post: 116684, member: 17165"] Hey [USER=5247]@ek125712[/USER], This is a valid question as I had similar anxieties ahead of these sessions. I wholeheartedly agree with [USER=8822]@Kubed[/USER]'s advice though - definitely lead with genuine interest over trying to impress. One thing that you could do is to have a look at their firm profile or LinkedIn and look ahead if anything [I]genuinely[/I] catches your eye. Sessions with extremely senior people can be stressful - not least because they will have run sessions like this numerous times in the past and are therefore likely to have answered/heard many, if not all, of the questions that are asked. My advice would be to really listen to how they describe their journey and personal experiences. Asking them about their personal experience will give you an insight that you can't just read on the firm's website and may make them think a little, rather than inviting them to regurgitate an answer to a question that they have heard X number of times! Please do reach out at any time before, during or after your scheme [USER=5247]@ek125712[/USER]! I will be running a webinar for Premium Members on vacation schemes over the coming weeks, so keep your eyes peeled 👀 [/QUOTE]
