thank you! do u have any insights into the group task or senior lawyer task?
Hiya again @GSJ
You’re welcome! These tasks weren’t part of the assessment centre when I attended the AC or vac scheme, so I can’t speak from direct experience. That said, if the senior lawyer task is a written one, the principles for succeeding in any written task apply: clarity, structure, and a logical approach to the problem are key. I'll just attach these three amazing guides written by @Jacob Miller:
From my experience with group presentations during the vac scheme with Jones Day, I think I can confidently say that the firm values people who are confident but also demonstrate an ability to work effectively with others. It’s important to show that you can hold your own while bringing others into the discussion, building on their ideas, and gently helping the group stay focused when it seems like there's been digression. Good luck 😊
