[QUOTE="Helena, post: 4863, member: 32"] Hi Nat well done. I have attended an AC at BCLP - nice firm and their AC is fairly standard. You will know from the email they sent you what the tasks are. Mine were the following: a drafting exercise which was not to technical. Just watch your time and try to complete, looking out for salient points. You then have to discuss this with a partner. A negotiation exercise where you are put with another candidate and you argue your side against another two candidates, bearing in mind you need to listen as well as contribute and you have to concentrate on securing the best outcome for your client. You need to come to a mutual agreement to the benefit of your client, so listen as well as participate. It's team work essentially. You need to be persuasive but not argumentative and be able to voice what you think even when others don't agree. A competency interview with the usual questions - Why Law, Why Commercial Law and why BCLP. Prepare as much as possible for competency because anything could crop up depending on what is on your CV. Hope this helps but I recommend you check exactly what they have said in the email as to how your day will be as format of ACs can vary. [/QUOTE]
