[QUOTE="J Wu, post: 5228, member: 544"] When I interviewed for the winter vac scheme last year, they generally stuck to the standard types of questions you might be asked in a competency interview, but with more of a focus on what I'd written in my application rather than individual competencies. From the top of my head, I remember they asked me: - Why commercial law? - Why White & Case? - Why did I study the course that I chose? (non-law) - Why did I have a few rogue marks within my first year grades? - How do I manage my time? (I had a lot of extra-curricular activities on my application) - this spun-off into some situational questions (what would I do if I had a deal closing coming up, but it was also my friend's wedding at the weekend?) - What commercial issue has drawn my attention recently? - What motivates me? - A variety of specific questions relating to things I'd talked about in my application [/QUOTE]
