      Vacation Scheme Student Interview

      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at A&O Shearman

      Interview

      Fairly straight forward. Two interviews (one case study). The case was the more difficult interview as it is conducted by a partner. Mine was a fair interview he was neither harsh nor lenient. I would recommend reading up on business analysis as they are definitely looking for commercial awareness.

      Question 1

      Case study can be quite in depth. Know how to analyse a business

      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at A&O Shearman (Hong Kong) in Feb 2019

      Interview

      Online applications, followed by group case study assessment and individual competency based interview. The group case study required reading quite a lot of information in a short time, working with others and presenting the information. It was challenging but fruitful. The individual interview was more casual but required thinking on your feet.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Case study, competency based questions
