The process was very structured and the interview began with explaining the structure. It went through typical interview questions. The interviewer was very nice and made it feel very conversational.
Polite, simple interview with questions ranging from motivational to knowledge about the firm. There were some questions regarding my personality and its match to law and the firm. It was important to articulate a genuine response and think carefully about the answer.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Stephenson Harwood in Oct 2022
Interview
It was friendly with a simple introduction in the beginning. The graduate recruitment member introduced herself and what she did and how the process would work and I gave a brief introduction about myself. The questions started off easy and gradually became more focused and specific.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why law? Why Stephenson Harwood? Why a commercial law firm? How did you research the firm? What seat are you interested in and why? Then a few competency based questions that I cannot remember.
