This year I am trying to improve my performance at AC's because this is an area I fell down on last year, which resulted in rejections at the final stage interview.
I will achieve this by:
- Using law blogs/websites to tailor my research to my interview firm. Littlelaw and Lawcareers.net provide great general info, but utilising Legal Cheek's "Firms Most List" will really help to tailor my preparation.
- Increase confidence by starting to prepare early. In the past I have noticed that my performance is much better when I have given myself enough time to process the upcoming assessment centre. Also, it will expose any gaps in my knowledge during my preparation.
- Create a flashcard question bank using the "Midterm" app based on the interview firm e.g., "Which country should the firm open a new office?" to prepare myself for the uncomfortable questions. The ugly reality is that interviewers will try to catch the interviewee out on purpose to see how they react. Furthermore, Jake Schogger's "Application, Interview & Internship" handbook will have more questions for me to incorporate into my question bank. Also, I will hold myself accountable by practicing the questions every other day and achieve spaced repetition.
- Complete TCLA's free course on "Securing a Training Contract" paying particular attention to the interviews and AC's section to reinforce current knowledge and inspire new ideas on preparing for AC's.
