    I actually don’t know anyone personally that was rejected, I just saw that people mentioned that there were a good amount of people that weren’t offered a WG on some forums! But just in general it’s more likely you’d see people that weren’t rejected than those that were! I mean if I was rejected...

    true but at the same time a lot of people were rejected even before the WG, I think you’d be more likely to hear from those who had a VI than those rejected!

    Hello @Jessica Booker I just realised I forgot to ask this, but you said not all case studies are M&A. But besides general business, and M&A case studies what other kinds could there be? Thanks!

    Oh no I meant where can you find the resources for this to prepare? Most case studies are typically M&A case studies. The ones I've found online simply give you practice case studies with answers, but I cant seem to find material that can provide steps on how to approach these case studies; i.e...

    Hey! So it’s 45s to prepare 60s to answer and I’m not sure about sharing questions the last time someone did that everyone was getting mad plus all the questions are randomized so you would probably not get the same questions as me anyways but I can guarantee there will be one commercial...

    hey I actually just now realized the question was phrased as “tell me about time when you were in a competitive situation” so you probably didn’t mishear it tbh! And yes I’m hoping because I honestly went so off from the question hopefully they consider high stress environments under the same...

    Yes it was prerecorded! And good to know I just know the tiniest mistake can ruin your chances. I guess I have to cross my fingers it’s not this one question that holds me back

    thank you! I think my other answers were pretty strong but unfortunately this was the first one, so I’m just hoping it doesn’t already make them make a decision.

    Ahh I was asking because I was asked this and answered by explaining when worked in a high stress busy work environment where I need to meet certain strict deadlines, and was worried I answered it completely wrong. I’m crossing my fingers one bad question won’t hold me back haha what’s everyone...

    Is it advisable to look at your notes in the 30 seconds you are given to prepare for an interview question or does this come off as unprofessional? From what I know the camera is on you the whole time

    In those 45 seconds would it be unprofessional to look at your notes? I'm not sure how it works but I'm assuming the cameras on you the whole time.

    Hi All, I just posted this on another forum, but I thought it might help to also post on here as well, but I've recently read on some websites that Baker McKenzie's video interview is composed of strength based questions. I'm a bit worried as I've mainly been preparing for competency/commercial...
