I definitely felt that I impressed the partners a little more; but it ultimately came down to the the type of case study in the AC. I do very well in M&A case studies but not so much for contractual interpretation ones.
Just to add to the above, I've had around 40ish rejections over the two cycles I've done apps in, and failed 4/7 assessment centers. Before my TC interview with Links on a Thursday, I was riding a streak of 2 consecutive AC failures (Tuesday and Friday before that Thursday).
A lot of us, myself...
Pro tip: when I get asked a difficult question I always give a 'toothy grin' to show that I'm 'enjoying' myself and am confident, while hiding the fact that I am mentally swearing at them for asking such a difficult question. Take a sip of water to buy yourself some time.
Disclaimer: worked...
Stay healthy you all, this interview season can be very stressful and can wreak havoc on your immune system.
I've just been diagnosed with the good ol' mumps, and my doctor suspects that I could've contracted it through all that travelling to London for ACs. o_O All that travelling + stress...
1. Checklists to stay organized.
2. If deadline is not terribly urgent, renegotiate the deadline.
3. Extra time at the end if the day to do the task.
That's how I structured my interview answers.
I've seen many white & case VI invites here, so these are the questions I had last year.
- What are the benefits of an international secondment?
- Discuss a challenge facing law firms
- time when you overcame a difficulty / challenge.
They've probably changed it this year though
