What this interview evaluates

Practice questions

  1. As a Legal Counsel, describe a real project that demonstrates business advice. What did you personally own?
  2. In a Legal Counsel role: A client wants to proceed before key facts have been verified. How do you assess the gaps and explain available options? Explain how business advice informs your decision.
  3. When contract negotiation conflicts with a delivery deadline, how do you prioritize? What would you give up?
  4. Describe a time when risk communication fell short. How did you diagnose the cause and improve the outcome?
  5. How would you explain a decision about contract negotiation to a non-specialist colleague and handle disagreement?
  6. You inherit a project with problems in business advice. What evidence and actions would you prioritize in the first two weeks?
  7. Which achievement on your resume best demonstrates readiness for a Legal Counsel role? Separate your contribution from the team's.
  8. What conditions or constraints about risk communication would you clarify with your interviewer?
