Hi @Khurram! Do you know what the discussion with a trainee and interview with two lawyers is based on?

Linking some posts here, here and here to help with your prep anyway! Let me know if these are useful.

Hi Avni, thanks for these they are really helpful.

From what I have read online, the discussion w the trainee is just to make you feel at ease (not assessed). The partner interview consists of the normal motivation questions, a few competency questions and I have come across one post saying there is the odd commercial awanress question.

Any other insight?

@Khurram thanks for this additional information! I would recommend giving these questions here a look, alongside the other links in my previous post, to help prepare for your partner interview.

All the best!
