Hey Guest, do you have a question for graduate recruitment? Gemma Baker from Willkie is live to answer your questions!
I don’t think any of these points will be issues, especially those in the second paragraph. As long as your answers were thorough and covered the points you needed them to, it won’t matter if they were slightly shorter.
For Kennedys I think I read it was 15seconds to read the question and 1min30 to answer. I’m also looking for any tips on the VI if anyone has done it
honestly this is such a weird phenomenon I have progressed with 4 firms who rejected me from their open days???
You've already done the test? How was it? Still preparing for the verbal reasoning section
Hey! yeah just did it - wasn't too bad and I MUCH preferred it to WG (those always scare me); I was a bit worried about the timing aspect of it - while it isn't timed, your score is affected by how long you take to complete the assessment.
Anywhere around 2-4 minutes. I’d always aim for the lower end of that, but heard plenty of slightly longer answers that were ok due to their structure.
I usually talk for about 3 minutes for these - recently ive actually said in a couple of interviews "please stop me if I go on too long" but idk if saying that is advisable tbh - althought I was offered schemes when I have said that in the interview
It wasn't too bad. My tips are focus on firms values and a news story. One question asks what you would do in a situation so there's not much you can do to prepare for that
Hey - I haven't applied to Simmons but I remember someone saying a while back that they do watch you the whole time 😅
