It's not a secret that applying and interviewing for graduate programs can be daunting, especially at your dream law firms.
Here are three tips from Graduate Lawyer Monique Messenger, to help you prepare for the interview.

1️⃣ Always write a cover letter. A good cover letter covers three important topics. 'Why you', 'Why the firm', and 'Why us'.
2️⃣ Don’t forget that this is also about working out if the firm is right for you! If you have a particular interest in a practice group, I recommend asking questions about that practice group – the size, structure, type of matters, and so on.
3️⃣ Clear your head before the interview. Make sure you have adequate time to get to the interview, eat breakfast beforehand, drink water, deep breathing and put yourself in a positive mindset.
