Thank you that is helpful!!! I've had VIs where you have like 15 second think time and I'm just there stuttering lmao. May I ask if they were more competency based questions and why the firm, or are there also commercial awareness qs?
Dentons VS offer! Please feel free to message me for tips or any advice! So happy, this is my dream firm!!!
Can they see you during the preparation time for the interview questions?
Yeah you have your cam on, no clue if it can be seen by GR or only the test providers though!
Literally!! I honestly did not think I was bad at Maths but I feel pretty bad about my skills right now 😭 I wish there was more than 1 practice q!
^^ us during the maths tests looooool
Again its quite hard to help without giving them away (and the test freaked me out by making a big point of saying you will be prosecuted for sharing anything)
(( 15 seconds is awful!I’d just say prepare for a mix, some you can’t really prepare for due to the specificity of them (you will see what I mean!)
Aw no worries, thank you for your help!! I am sure you did better than you think you didAgain its quite hard to help without giving them away (and the test freaked me out by making a big point of saying you will be prosecuted for sharing anything)

I will come back to feedback afterGood luck!! ❤️❤️Aw no worries, thank you for your help!! I am sure you did better than you think you did
unfortunately if you didn't save it before submitting I don't think you can retrieve it again
I see most people are suggesting a smartphone, so I will offer the opposite view! I did mine on my PC as I trust the receptivity of my mouse and spacebar far more than I trust the touchscreen of my phone. I'm not sure if they are adapted depending on which device you are using but it definitely wasn't difficult on the PC.
If you are into gaming as well, then I would strongly recommend the PC - your reaction times with keyboard/mouse will be strong and you will have the benefit of a bigger screen.
Good luck!!
Thanks for this!
I just completed it and did end up doing it on my smartphone, however can definitely see the benefits of doing it on a laptop in terms of having a bigger screen etc
Did the graduate recruitment give any indication when they are gonna start looking at TC applications ?
Best thing to do is to take a look at some mcquaig examples online. There is nothing especially complex, it’s all pretty basic. It’s just about being confident enough to work quickly. My biggest tip would be to move on if you don’t think you can answer a question quickly and go back to it. Then you’ll be able to use time you have left at the end more efficiently for anything you find takes a little longer.
