J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 3 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez Linklaters (Hong Kong) en mai 2012
Entretien
A nice chat about my regulatory experience and how I would tackle certain issues confronting clients. The global regulatory partner was incredibly clued in and i felt he already had the answer but just wanted to see how I would manage if thrown in an actual meeting with clients. He also mentioned that there would be certain leadership transitions within the Asia pacific region and as a Senior Associate coming from private practice this transparency was very much appreciated. The two interviewees were very civil and warm during the interview but did ask very challenging questions, which I felt I didn't answer altogether well at the time.
