London vacation schemes

What to do

careers.aoshearman.com/en/london-vacation-schemes

Step 1 is to read the real listing. Step 2 is only if it fits. When you’re ready, you apply on the employer’s website.

How they hired last cycle

Last cycle, not a promise. This year’s process can change — confirm it on the employer’s page before you prepare.

Last cycle, not a promise: SJT, verbal, numerical · Video motivation · Assessment centre · Written form

Role → Application → Test → Interview → Assessment → Outcome

• Tests: SJT, verbal, numerical
• Video / interview: Video motivation
• Assessment centre: Assessment centre

• Closing soon. Finish a specific form this week rather than starting a new story bank.
• Timed numerical is a first cut on this listing. Do one live set in Test gym before the invite, and read the working after each item.
• Print a pack the night before the centre: the employer’s values plus three of your stories with numbers.
• They often want a student email. Alumni should use the company careers site, not a campus portal.

Winter scheme is for finalists (spring TC). Summer scheme is for penultimate-year students (autumn TC).

Questions they often ask

Draft these on the campaign after you save. You still paste the answers on the employer’s site.

1. Why this firm and this city.
2. A time you handled detail under pressure.
