    Firms are generally looking for candidates who can tackle difficult situations head on, and to do this you need to maintain confidence and a clear head, even if you feel very nervous. Speaking up, remaining calm and ensuring your thoughts and opinions are heard by those assessing you is the best way to secure a follow up interview. This is especially effective when combined with preparation, you should know a lot about the firm and its work, and be able to pepper this into your answers as much as possible whether in a debate, presentation or group exercise.
