I applied online. I interviewed at Simmons & Simmons
Interview
First there was an inbox exercise where we had to create a to-do list based on emails we had received. Tasks had to be prioritised as low-priority and high-priority based on their importance and urgency. Then there was a case study exercise where we received a list of documents pertaining to an accusation of bribery, and we had to do a 5 minute presentation after. This was followed by some simple follow up questions. Then a 30 minute competency interview.

Question 1
Why Simmons & Simmons? What makes the firm different? Some competency questions based on communication and teamwork
Straight forward process, including a situational strengths test, verbal and numerical reasoning, and a video interview. The camera was recording the entire time, which can be distracting. Overall an enjoyable experience.

Applied online and got referred to an online assessment centre and video interview almost immediately. The first assessment was quite easy, and then there was the interview. it was ok, specially since they didn't time it so you had quite a lot of time to think and prepare.
