Interview Day - half day in the firm comprising of:

  • Watson Glaser retest
  • Work simulation exercise
  • HR/Managing Associate and Partner interviews

If you are accepted for a vacation scheme, you don't have to reapply for a training contract as you are automatically entitled to an interview. This happens after you have completed the vacation scheme and lasts about 90 minutes. Once you've applied and been invited for interview, the process can be seen on the following pages.
