    I already had 2 other reasons why for why the firm and wanted the third to be focused on one of my LPC modules - I selected and enjoyed both finance and IP as modules so just decided to go ahead with finance

    Hi @Jessica Booker - I hope you are well! I have a phone interview coming up with Grad Recruitment - on my application I mentioned the firm's expertise in Banking & Finance as one of my 'why us' reasons. For the interview, however, I want to mention their expertise in IP instead Do you...

    Thankyou! That’s useful, did you do that this year? The email said technical commercial q’s may be asked too but from everyone’s previous experience it seems they don’t include that

    Hi @Jessica Booker - thanks for responding earlier to my previous question. I am looking into a question of what differentiates the firm from its competitors ( from a client perspective) - I have read that the firm doesn’t work on billable hour targets - would this count as a valid point to make?

    Hi @Jessica Booker an application is asking me whether I ‘know anyone employed’ by the firm I have interacted with a few ( maybe 5 or 6) of the lawyers at the firm through my current role. I’ve assisted these lawyers with a few things - via video call/email. Does that count as ‘knowing’ them...

    Fieldfisher doesn’t seem to have an online portal ( unless I’m missing something) It was 75% situational questions 25% WG questions. The ST questions were mixed, some quite hard because there were a few decent ‘best options’ whereas others were more obvious

    Hi all, I did a Capp test for fieldfisher Sunday at around 5pm. I was told the report would come in 24-48 hours. I know it’s not been 48 hours but usually these reports don’t take too long & I'm worried they didn’t receive my test answers? I did get a confirmation after my test on screen that...

    Hi @Jessica Booker, I hope you are well. How do I go about approaching a question which says ‘ what are the things that have shaped you into the person you are today?’ do I need to link this to a career in commercial law/ being a lawyer? & what type or examples would be suitable? for example...
