Hii,
I was not sure where to put this post, but I was wondering if anyone happens to have interviewed with the CMA. I was fed up with law firm applications and applied to the CMA's Legal Intern position on a whim and have been invited for an interview?!
If anyone has interviewed with them before...

Thanks!

I've had a fair few DMs after my post in the vacation scheme thread about Weil so I figured I'd make a thread here so everyone can have the benefit of any 'knowledge' I've got.
The written exercise is okay. It's quite time-pressured and you have to write a note to a client explaining...

Hi everyone, last year I reached the HSF's assessment day. A part of their process is to conduct a case study interview that is aimed at putting you under lots of pressure by reading a substantial amount of information, as well as constantly challenge your points of view.
