I was relocating from overseas so did an initial interview via Skype and a second round interview in the London office. Everyone was very polite and friendly throughout the process and I felt that they were interested in getting to know me as an individual and whether I would genuinely be a good fit in the team. I did not get an offer so I sought feedback and was told that I had all the skills they were looking for but the role had gone to someone with more UK practising experience.

Question 1
They asked what was the most technically challenging work I had done and for an explanation of how I upskilled to meet challenges.
I met with all partners of the team (one interview was with several partners together, and one interview was with just one). They asked me about my previous experience and focused their questions on a particular case I handled.
