News and Updates from FWA
Apr 2025

In todayโs hybrid hiring landscape, video interviews are here to stayโespecially in the legal sector where clarity, precision, and professionalism are non-negotiable.
Whether you’re a seasoned solicitor or newly qualified, make a strong impression with these essential tips:
โ
Set the Scene
Choose a quiet, well-lit space with a neutral background. First impressions matterโensure your setting reflects your professionalism.
โ
Test Your Tech
Check your internet connection, webcam, and microphone well in advance. Log in a few minutes early to avoid last-minute hiccups.
โ
Dress the Part
Treat it like an in-person meeting. Dress in business attire, head to toeโyou never know when youโll need to stand up!
โ
Mind Your Body Language
Maintain eye contact by looking into the camera, not the screen. Sit up straight, nod to show engagement, and avoid fidgeting.
โ
Know Your CV & the Role
Be ready to speak confidently about your experience and how it aligns with the firmโs values and the roleโs responsibilities.
๐ฏ Bonus Tip: Practice makes perfect. Try a mock interview with a friend or recruitment consultant to build confidence.
