Well well well, I have absolutely ruined my chances with Clyde & Co! My answers didn’t even make sense lol
That was stressful! I agree, none of the questions were very difficult but there’s absolutely no way to prepare or know whether my answers were correct. I feel knackered now!Just finished the Clyde & Co Video Interview for the Winter VS! Good luck to anyone else doing it!
I found it a bit tough, but nothing out of the ordinary - they focus on situational judgement for the most part, some being written responses, ranking and a couple of video responses ie how would you respond in a particular situation. Then at the end, there are three video questions about your motivations and basically to show your enthusiasm for the firm 👍 There are time limits on the video responses, but you also get a set time to prepare .
Would the same go for the company's posting addresses? On the W&C application, there is no formatting option, so I can't place my own posting address to the right of the page - I assume the reason for this is that they don't want people entering their posting address.No - it’s not necessary to include them if you have included them elsewhere in the application.
YesAnyone who completed the Clyde and Co VI, was this for the winter vac scheme ?
I feel exactly the same! So tired now. I felt like I repeated myself so much because I was just so unsure about what I was supposed to be saying! Like what do you want from me🤣That was stressful! I agree, none of the questions were very difficult but there’s absolutely no way to prepare or know whether my answers were correct. I feel knackered now!
Motivational and scenario based mostly but you need to know the firm tooI understand that we can't ask for specific questions for the Clyde & Co VI, but I was wondering whether the questions were mainly motivation/competency based or whether they required specific knowledge about the firm/deals they are involved in etc. Thanks!
Just out of curiosity! why is no one willing to post the C&C questions to help the others and just giving general info. It would be really helpful if someone could share a bit more.
See Jessica's reply to your previous post asking for questions. It undermines the fairness of the hiring process if some people are able to fully prepare for questions found out in advance compared to others who truthfully go into it with no knowledge as the firm intended them toPlease note that our policy on the forums is not to provide video interview questions on the forum.
People can talk about the general themes of the questions and also provide general advice on how to prepare, but we do not feel it is appropriate for the specific wording of questions to be provided.
Posting the C&C questions gives people a very unfair advantage compared to the candidates who did the interview unseen. Especially given that the C&C questions were very specifically worded and difficult to pre-empt.Just out of curiosity! why is no one willing to post the C&C questions to help the others and just giving general info.

sorry to those who i confused by this.. i meant ive passed the sjt but still havent heard if ive progressed to AC or not despite many having done an Ac already. should i just assume pfo? 😤Anyone STILL havent heard back from A&O regarding if progressed to an AC?? dont know how to feel
Yes I would like to know this tooWhat type of questions does Clyde & Co ask for the video interview
I totally agree but helping others would never step in your way or could take your chance. I understand where you are coming from. But, I see it like the previous applications data base and the interview experiences provided on this platform as well. Correct me if it is different. because I think we are all having unfair advantage by using the TCLA and reviewing services compared to everyone who is not.See Jessica's reply to your previous post asking for questions.

I think it's in the terms and conditions you accept before you take the test that you won't share the questions asked in the assessment, similar to before the Watson Glaser.I totally agree but helping others would never step in your way or could take your chance.

I’m sorry but having a platform like TCLA where you are able to ask for general advice regarding cover letters and how to improve your commercial awareness is COMPLETELY different from being given the exact questions in a VI. It undermines the entire process and the only person benefiting is the person asking for the questions (I.e. you). If this was the case, the entire recruiting process would be ridiculous because you would have individuals who are genuinely trying their best and working hard but getting rejected and then others who are fed the answers without any work whatsoever and progressing to the next stages.I totally agree but helping others would never step in your way or could take your chance.

Thanks!Motivational and scenario based mostly but you need to know the firm too
And what about the interview experiences which have the exact same questions that will be asked during the interview?I’m sorry but having a platform like TCLA where you are able to ask for general advice regarding cover letters and how to improve your commercial awareness is COMPLETELY different from being given the exact questions in a VI.

Let’s keep it genuine guys and fair for all x
I do not want anyone to think that I am just arguing for my own benefit, I personally did not submit an application with the firm and not planning too, I was just surprised of how this is viewed form such a narrow perspective and standard.I’m sorry but having a platform like TCLA where you are able to ask for general advice regarding cover letters and how to improve your commercial awareness is COMPLETELY different from being given the exact questions in a VI.
