The assessment day consisted of a small group exercise (3 people), large group exercise (6 people), client presentation and one motivation/competency based interview. The interview was strengths based and focussed on potential situations you may encounter as a trainee.

A whole day assessment day, ice breaker and 4 activities: small group task, large group task, interview and presentation all centered around 1 client profile and interlinked for each task. After each task we were asked 3 questions to reflect and self-review our performance. Small group task: - discussed who would be the ideal solicitor to take charge of the case based on profile descriptions and how we would make the project appeal to them. Large group task: - deciding on the right product for the client to meet their needs based on the client profile documents. Interview: with 1 or 2 partners Presentation: using AI, prepared a presentation to the client about the ideal product for them to reach their goals and why. Presented to 2 partners and answered follow up questions. Overall, everyone was very friendly and welcoming throughout the process.
