I shared some tips here and I also referenced another post where I shared some questions that might come up, I hope these are helpdul and good luck with your preparation! https://www.thecorporatelawacademy....ns-discussion-thread-2023-24.8037/post-158671Does anyone have any tips on how to prepare for a video interview - what firm related topics may come up outside of 'why this firm?', 'a specific practice area', or 'a specific case'?
Thank you
I would say that they care about knowing why the news you decided to talk about is important according to you. This could be because of the impact it has on the business sector, on society, on law firms, on their clients, whatever you deem significant or important. It is a personal consideration regarding the issue at hand so you should investigate what kind of news you want to talk about and discuss its consequences, and according to those, coupled with other factors (some of which I have mentioned before), you have to specify why the news is important.
I would try and change the answer. This can also mean changing the verbs and nouns with synonyms without necessarily changing the content of the answer, if you do not have anything to change. However, try to use different experiences if you can or describe experiences you have already talked about last year from a different angle.
For anyone waiting on CMS- they’ll be sending out a second batch of interview invites on the 29th of dec!
8th January! That’s what the firm’s website says
I would say it is generally smaller than many firms, but it depends on the context you are describing here. For a US firm 12 would be large, but for a multi location national firm it may not be that small.
I think I've had 23 PFO's , don't let two stop you! you might not be a right fit for their firm but another firm will be perfect for you, keep applying and be positive
