Trainee Legal Advisor - Ministry of Justice 2023
Hi everyone,
I’ve been invited to interview for the Trainee Legal Advisor position with the Ministry of Justice.
My interview will be online. I am kindly asking anyone if they could share their experiences on the interview and what to expect.
I’ve read quite a bit on the forum about there being a legal based scenario. I’ve completed my LPC a few years back and my legal experience is not in the criminal law/family law areas. As a result, I’d like to prepare as much as possible for this interview.
Can those who have interviewed online, please share their experiences on what to expect and the best way that one can prepare for these interviews.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi Angelval123,
Did you manage to get any advice? I also have an interview soon and would appreciate some feedback from anyone who has been through the process?
