Nope! Didn’t need none of that. Just go with confidence and smiles. Be yourself. Honestly that’s all you need. 😊. Me tooo. Hopefully it went well. 🤞Amazing thank you so much! Did you need any like "prior knowledge" of the firm and the awards they have received etc etc? I am trying to work out how much I need to prep alongside my full time job. I am sure you smashed it, and I look forward to hearing your result!!!

KENNEDYS SQE TRAINING PROGRAMME
- Thread starter Oroma
- Start date
Glad it went well for you, sounds a bit stressful haha! Out of interest what did you spend the other time doing? Did Kennedys do a presentation / did you get to interact with any current trainees?
Disclaimer: I don’t know if it went well 😂. I was genuinely enjoying the session. It was fun tbh just be yourself. No need to pretend because you’re actually trying to see if the firm is for you as much as you them. I’m usually the chatty type and I have so many smiles to give 😭 We also did an ice breaker at the start that was fun. Yes we got to ask questions. The trainees were calm. Like we were all just having a fun chat. Don’t feel the need to be too technical. Some questions that were asked to the trainees were even too technical and they said they didn’t know. 😭
Haha yeah I guess you never do with these things!! If you were having a good time though im sure that came across well 😁. Thank you for answering all our questions!! Its made me feel less stressed about it!
Oo I see, thank you for sharing an insight. This AC seems really different to other virtual ones I have attended this year haha!!
By the way, I remember I said I was used to recording myself and the VI was fairly good for me because it was just recording but my nerves actually showed up a little bit when I was recording for the AC micro assessments because of the extra tasks and time pressure. I don’t know if this will help anyone in preparation for their own AC. I can’t even give advise on this because truly they’re testing how you work under time pressure and it’s hard to prepare because you will just act quickly when you’re in the position. So just try and be calm if you can. It’s hard when there’s so much in front of you but if you don’t stick to the recommended time you actually won’t get through the activities. So you have to just try your best to work strategically. 😅💗!
I can’t thank you enough for this, really put my mind at ease!
Was MS teams only needed for the informal chats at the end, or was there some aspect of group work where you had to do presentations etc?
thank you!
That’s interesting as most AC’s i’ve read up on seem to have group work, but maybe it is better this way!

Thank you so much for all of the information you provided! It was really helpful (I have mine later today) and it has really calmed my nerves
Hope it all goes well for you, it sounds like you smashed it!! Good luck with your senior associate interviewJust finished my interview. She ended with “see you when the office opens” hope that’s a good sign 😂😂😂
