3 people or less for the placement in the London office. Around 4-5 in other offices.

Congratulations! What was your feedback report like?

I was in the middle dot for all but 8 of the qualities! For the other 8, I got 6 on the right and 2 on the left! Absolutely no idea what any of that means though hahah - happy to give more detail but I do not understand the feedback very much on these tests

The 2 Paul Hastings questions seem awfully similar ?? Why do you wish to complete a work placement with us? and What has attracted you to Paul Hastings?
