Application form and online testing (playing some numerical / verbal based games) Case Study, First round interview with HR, which is competency based and then Partner interview to test commercial awareness
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Ashurst (London, England) in Jan 2023
Interview
This is a very chill and friendly process. It is with one HR and one senior associate. They are very nice throughout the way. The interview is not CV blinded.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Please share an experience of resilience.
Why Ashurst?
What commercial stories have you come across? How does it relate to Ashurst?
Had a written task on a commercial scenario concerning how you would advise a businesss owner seeking investment from angel investors. Following this there was an hour long competency and motivations based interview with fairly standard questions and the odd commercial awareness question thrown in.
