Useful advice, thanks Daniel! Glad to hear the structure for the VI is somewhat the same as last year and I agree with the point on the commercial question. It is always best to prepare to the fullest. Good luck with it all :)- Salma

Honestly I don’t know but I would assume 3 questions for each part? 60 secs to prepare and 90 secs to speak! 15mins though, that’s horrendous :(- Salma

White & Case Vacation Scheme Interview 2018
Also just FYI White and Case also mentioned that they’re operating a CV blind recruitment cycle this year. So the interviewer will not know where you studied, your grades or anything else. It will give you a real chance to shine and sell yourself.- Salma

White & Case Vacation Scheme Interview 2018
Judging by what they explained on the open day. They will simply ask you what have you been following in the press and following your answer, the interviewer will ask you follow up questions. I hope this helps!- Salma
