You’ll come across as more sincere if you discuss one you’re genuinely interested in. If it happens to be a client - then great!
Has anyone done a recent Video Interview with White and Case, please !!!, I need the questions PLEASEE!!!
I applied I think in the end of November and its for Summer!When did you apply? and for what scheme?
Hey when did you do your VI if u dont mind me asking? congratsI've also been invited to Addleshaw Goddard's AC (still in shock). If anyone has any tips please feel free to PM me
))I do not agree with this! Most people do it without the questions and therefore get a chance to equally prepare. Someone telling you what the questions might also be hurting their own chances.
I think it is fine to get some general tips but straight out asking for the questions I don’t think is right.
Don't think they will give feedback, I couldnt even get feedback from my vac schene
Really agree! Be authentic but try to be clever about it as I think if you pick a business that relates to you maybe or that is a genuine interest you can show your personality and character so maybe link back to you if anything but don’t worry. Just be honest
Ultimately I feel as though, you usually get people who’ve passed that stage telling people the questions. At the end of day, we are all trying to get a training contract.. anything helps.. if anyone is willing to tell others the questions it’s not a bad thing I feel. It’s akin to you networking with a partner and they give you insight into their firm for interviews or trainees. Those aren’t general. They’re usually very specific. And I don’t think you’d be hurting your own chances because if you didn’t answer it well it’s just a fact.. they’d only pick you if you answered the questions well not based on the quality of your answer against the general response or so.
Is it akin to networking? A firm representative would never tell you the very Q's that you will be asked in interview. Maybe more akin to going into an exam having already been handed the questions...
If you think GradRec doesn’t already know people share questions with one another, you are mistaken.
Nice of Clyde & Co to send me two rejections haha. Not fussed as I have a CMS Academy offer!! I received the offer last Monday if anyone finds that useful.

Can't remember the questions, but there were only three questions and I think 90 seconds to answer each one. But I don't think there is a timer for your preparation time, so you will have plenty of time to think it through during the VI. Good luck!
Ok I'm really not sure if I am completely overthinking this but I am trying to answer the question 'what is a commercial issue that has interested you recently' - what here constitutes a commercial issue? I am just worried that the things I know which present a challenge for the business world are quite generic and not anything recently
Anything you’ve read in the news recently caught your interest? What does it/will it mean for businesses?
The main aspect of the question is to think why it interests you and explore that! They’re more interested in that than they are the actual issue!
