I interviewed at CMS Cameron McKenna (London, England)
Interview
I was given a recorded interview that gave me one minute to prepare and one minute to answer. I felt that this big of a time constraint drew away from the point of what an interview should capsulate. I found myself trying to cram as much information that was relevant to the question as possible and did not get a good chance to present an adequate representation of myself as a candidate.
Was well executed. Was AI-type questions done via HireVue. 1 minute to "think", 1 minute to answer (which was shorter than anticipated). 3 questions overall all of similar difficulties and topics.
