    Do you mean interview with partners, associates or graduate recruitment right? If so, yes, you are expected to ask questions at the end. If you mean a classic video interview then no. In terms of questions, it really depends on you and what you want to know about the firm or the interviewers...

    In these circumstances I personally would not mention them and most of the time will not make or break your interview performance and result anyway, just focus on what you studied. I do understand that it comes natural to many to say the universities they have studied, and it would be natural...

    What was the feedback specifically on? I would say that the value of the transaction, in terms of monetary value, would probably not be something I would mention but I do not know if this is what you are referring to. More generally though, I think it is important to reflect on what a city...

    I personally with focus on who, in the initial 3 months, will be the best people at the firm to help me figure out how to best navigate the firm, its culture, the workload and the opportunities presented to me as a trainee. In this respect, I would potentially write about meeting a Partner in...

    It depends on the law firm to be honest, with some law firms I heard back two hours after, some people 2 weeks after the final interview with other firms so it is very firm dependent I would say. But realistically, 1/2 weeks on average I think.

    I personally think that it is never beneficial to think too much into things after an assessment centre. The perceptions that you have about how it went are more often than not completely wrong and so just wait for the result! I know it is easier said than done and I was like you when I was...
