Hey could you share your experience with the VI please how many questions did they ask? And good luck!! X
Hi there? Can anybody please offer some guidance as what to expect from the VI this time around? Is it one commercial question and 2 competency related qs? Thank youI received an invitation to VI from Kennedys at 10:00 today.
Good luck to those of you still waiting to hear back from Kennedys following the SST
Hey guys. May I ask whether anybody is aware what this year comprised of? Did anybody get any commercial questions and were there two competency qs too? Any help would be greatly appreciated
thank youI finished my LPC at ULaw but its been a short while. Would it trouble you at all to send me a copy please. Thank you!No it isn't, don't worry – I didn't know until last year either!
I think @Praying4TC2022 has explained it pretty well! If you're at ULaw (and I'm sure other providers do this too) the employability team has created a document with a long list of example interview questions, breaking it down into competency, strengths etc which I found quite helpful in being able to differentiate between the two.
Happy to share the ULaw one if anyone needs
Hey!
To answer the questions I got, the questions are very generic. As people have said, you have one motivation, one strength and one competence question.
In hindsight, I would've just prepared by going through my experiences and my research on the firm rather than trying to memorise prepared answers. Keeping calm and composed is something I unfortunately did not do during my VI.
Good luck everyone!

Thank you! Good luck im praying we all get some good news <3
thank you Dani2000. Ah so just three questions then. Wishing you the best of luck.
Thank you for this. Wishing you every success. I usually do the same, and sometimes go over unrelated things and the nerves get to me! Interesting to hear no commercial awareness questions then.
tonight. did you get any commercial awareness qs? Have you heard back yet or are you still waiting?
I suspect they might in limited instances. However, a request would likely need to be made prior to the VI submission deadline. I was provided a window of two weeks to complete my VI (by 16th Feb). I am not sure when your deadline is; but, presuming it has not passed, I would suggest you make your request ASAP .. with 'good reason'
Good luck!
I did not receive any commercial awareness qs. Also - I have not yet heard back. Good luck @Davidsach
Thank you @cjc44 - this is some very helpful insight for the group! Good luck with your outcome - I am sure it went better than you think
Maybe I’m just bitter cuz I feel that I did shit, but in my *personal opinion* the question were stupid. And you dont need to prepare. Like you can do the interview knowing absolutely nothing about the firm because they questions were generic AF. They could have literally been interviewing for a car salesman
