Just received a final stage interview invite with Travers- its on Wednesday (1 hr with GR Partner). Could someone please share how best to prepare for this format.
Was going to take the second half of the day off to attend... is it also worth taking the morning off (my supervisor has allowed me to but not sure if its needed as the interview in only 1 hour)?

Guide to answering why this firm/how to research firms.

Hi everyone. I've become more strategic in how I'm approaching VS/TC applications so I thought I'd send my template. In every column I put down (in my personal version) a factor about a firm that was important/interesting to me e.g. secondments, diversity, IP seat etc. By doing this it was easier to decide whether I actually liked a firm or just the idea of them. I used legal cheek most list, chambers/legal 500 and chambers student to fill this out. Also by doing this, you also have some research you can use for your apps. Hope this helps.
