Hey! If it's the same AC as for the vac scheme, it's pretty full on but also good fun too. There isn't a great deal that you can prepare for. There's a group task where you are given a case study and deliver an oral presentation and answer some questions weighing up different options for a potential client. In this exercise, you want to ensure that you are involved (which doesn't necessarily mean speaking the most) and try to include others in the team.

You then have a different case study exercise on your own, in which you are given a bunch of emails and tasked with summarising the key issues and suggesting potential options for the client. I got a bit of a grilling in my Q&A for not considering enough options, so try to think quite broadly.

Finally, there's an interview with two people (mine were both partners). It's mainly focused around your motivations and experiences but there are also some commercial elements, so make sure that you go in having researched the firm, its clients and key commercial challenges and opportunities.

Good luck!
