Message: <blockquote data-quote="bangarangbass39" data-source="post: 181336" data-attributes="member: 30928">Hi,I intend to create a bank of application questions for the firm I intend to apply for this cycle. I strongly believe this will help with my firm research as their questions illustrate the value they seek in their applicants. Additionally, I think this will help with the upcoming application questions where many of them will be quite similar to their previous recruitment cycles. If anyone has applied before and has a log of their responses, or they just simply know, could you please list the questions used by firms for their vac scheme recruitment cycles? I'm only interested in Hogan Lovells, Mishcon de Reya, Addleshaw, and Bates Wells at the min (particularly in the last 3 years as I applied for these firms last year so I know the questions already). However, I recognise many of you might interested in other firms so I thought would be good to have this thread so people can list the questions for other firms if they can!Below is a list of ones I have so farMishcon (2023/24)1) Aside from wanting a challenging career, why do you want to be a commercial lawyer, and why do you want to train at Mishcon de Reya? (300 words max)2) We believe that successful lawyers are great Shapers: individuals with interests, hobbies, passions or visions; and the drive and motivation to develop these in order to shape the world around them. We're looking for people who can shape the information they are given; shape arguments; shape relationships; shape solutions (see <a href="https://www.mishcon.com/graduates/mishcon-shapers" target="_blank">https://www.mishcon.com/graduates/mishcon-shapers</a>). Tell us about a time that you have demonstrated being a Shaper. (300 words max)3) If we were to invite you to interview, what issue would you most like to talk about and why? This can be a non-legal issue and should be something you genuinely feel passionate about. (300 words max)Addleshaw (2023/24)1) What attracts you to a career in commercial law and why specifically at Addleshaw Goddard?2) Is technology and AI an opportunity or a threat for Addleshaw Goddard and why?3) Choose one of Addleshaw Goddard's practice areas or sectors and tell us about a major change in law or government policy that clients in that sector/practice area are facing and what opportunities that creates for us?4) If you were in government what one thing would you change to make it easier for UK businesses to succeed and why?Bates Wells (2023/24)1) Tell us what has attracted you to a career in the legal industry.
