CPS Legal Trainee Scheme 2018

Scroll to see replies

Don't take this as accurate as it might have changed this year...but the way it worked last year was that you get one question at a time and you have to submit the answer for it before you get to see the next question.

So you can re-record as many times per question, then submit it and get the next question.

Yes I thought the same too! I don't think we will be able to view all the questions first and then submit our answers.. It will be the case of viewing the next question once you have answered the previous question

Anyways good luck guys!

Has anyone else received only one email saying they will shortly be invited to complete the video interview? Also on my application centre it says schedule a time slot and bring ID????

The information on the CS jobs portal is just standard so a bit confusing!

Just use the info sent via email to complete the video via launchpad :smile:

I think we should be receiving a separate email with the details to complete the video interview. Has anyone received it yet?

I had a lot of trouble with the software. In the end I contacted technical support who had to reset my questions because it kept freezing. Some of the advice was use chrome instead of explorer, restart your device and try and sit close to the router.Hope that helps!
