Hey Guest, do you have a question for graduate recruitment? Gemma Baker from Willkie is live to answer your questions!
Thanks so much! For video interviews, do you have to loop back and talk about why (whatever my answer is e.g i'm a great team player) because of this I would be an asset to the firm and highlight facts about the firm? Or am I simply answering the question? Thanks so much in advance!
I always end my cover letters with "Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to hearing from you." and then a sign off
Some don't want to have work experience in their initial screen, on the understanding that for students (the majority of applicants) assessing work experience will tend to reproduce generational advantages. It usually comes up later in the process.
Flipside of this ofc is that you could have good but not sterling grades, be from a working class background and have acquitted yourself well in the workforce and not be able to use this at first cut.
I wouldn't necessarily say you have to make it a long answer, mostly because the time given isn't a lot. I would say its valuable to always link back but I believe the real substance would stem from the delivery and following a structured approach. Usually, these interviews have a time limit of 2-3 minutes which is really not that much and you don't want to get cut off mid way
Thank you for your consideration, I hope to have the opportunity to discuss this further at interview.
Seems very few people have applied to them 🤨 Fingers crossed we hear something back soon, I hate the waiting!
Huge congratulations! I only recently completed their games based test (about 1-2 weeks ago!) Hopefully will hear back soon too! *fingers crossed*
