Interview Tips – Partnership or Senior Level Roles
If this is your first time interviewing for a senior level post you are likely to notice some significant differences, particularly if the last time you interviewed was as a relatively junior associate. Below we identify some of the key areas and provide some tips on how you might prepare.
The majority of senior level meetings are highly conversational and far less structured than an associate
interview. Whilst this is largely positive, it also puts a great deal of emphasis on you to get your key points across and to sell yourself, since you are less likely to be fed questions to bring out your strengths. The meeting is also far more likely to focus on business than on technical expertise since by this stage in your career, the latter will be taken largely for granted.
