Year 3, week 31: winner takes it all
According to one of the current crop of pupils, the strangest question she was asked at interview at one chambers last year was: “What’s your favourite Abba song?”
Apparently she replied: “‘Take A Chance On Me’, followed closely by ‘Money, Money, Money’”.
When they later offered her a pupillage she sent a note of reply stating: “Thank you for your offer which I am delighted to reject on the basis both of your poor choice of questions and your even worse taste in music.” She then added at the end: “P.S. I forgot to mention: ‘The Winner Takes It All.’”
If anyone else has had such an experience of ludicrous questions, do please leave them below as a comment (without of course naming the chambers involved).
