      Training Contract Interview

      Dec 1, 2025
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Birmingham, England
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Hogan Lovells (Birmingham, England) in May 2025

      Interview

      Interviews with recruitment team and with partners, case study included in partner interview. Recruitment interview was situational, more about seeing the response of the individual to certain issues arising within the office, both professionally and socially. The whole interview was carried out in a relatively casual manner, more of a conversation than a standard interview. Interview with partner was more traditional, with the usual questions of 'why commercial law' etc coming up. There was also a case study to discuss which was seen prior to the interview, not too complex and more a test of commercial sense than any legal knowledge - although basic legal understanding was helpful. A more typical interview but not overly interrogative.
