I am preparing for an Arthur Cox group interview and was wondering if anybody had done one before and what questions they were asked, and also what questions are likely to be asked? Thanks.
 
These links may help - or they may tie you in knots.

I'll also offer the advice offered me by someone I respect - be straight with your answers as opposed to clever.

But don't be stupidly straight on the "why do you want to work for us" question and say "because I need the money badly to pay bills."

Lastly, try talking to people you know in similar positions to yours in other companies - know a little about your intended job and your own strengths that will enable you to do it.
