Official Vacation Scheme Thread 2015!!!

I had one a couple months ago - it was very to the point ie question-answer, question-answer. no chit chat, was over in just over 10mins. Pretty standard questions - aside from the usual why us/why you etc, they asked -
- how i keep up to date with commercial news
- what 3 factors clients look for when appointing a firm
- what the 3 most important factors affecting global commerce are

best of luck!

Heard from Farrers, got an open day early March So surprised, thought my application was terrible ... Really happy!!!

Congrats! Do you mind if I ask when you applied?

So has anyone had an interview with Clyde & Co?? Mine is on Tuesday, hope I ace it because I am really keen on Clyde!

have you heard back from hill dickinson yet?? still waiting and i did mine about two weeks ago as well...

Haven't heard back but then I don't think anyone has? May be wrong there

No idea regarding the level of difficulty. I have been invited to take the test too.

Dentons first round interview invite. Anyone got any tips?

Hi, good luck for the interview! Can I ask how long it took for dentons to get back to you after the test?

Anybody else surprised by how much interest some firms seem to take in in where else you've applied/have offers from during interviews?

Yeah everywhere I've been has asked me that! Not sure if they want to see how 'good' you are or maybe just seeing if you're consistent in factors that you've thought of when applying… didn't expect them to care so much, bit nosy

Hey, I have an interview with them next Tuesday, would it be possible to tell me more about what happened? Questions asked? Tips? Etc. Thanks!

Hey sure! Not sure how much of a help I'll be because the interview process was different to the one they did in Edinburgh - so I don't know if it's different for each office.

The competency test is the most challenging part but I just found that keeping in mind they're asking you to absorb and process a lot of work in a very short time frame so don't stress to much.

The interview was VERY competency based - like extremely so - I was surprised!
