It was a lengthy process with several stages over a number of months requiring significant commitment and time resource. The interview consists of two parts legal test (theory may have been given in advance) , then you present your answer to the legal question to the panel and then the actual interview starts. Well over 2 hours from start to finish and this is only for the final interview. This is the easy one because the recruitment process for advocates takes about double the time ; so estimate roughly that you’ll need 6 months for that.

One legal assessment which was 1 hour 20 minutes long. 1 hour prep time. 20 minutes interview. This was a advocacy presentation that had to address sentencing guidelines. Second one was standard interview assessing behavioral competency cases covering Making Effective Decisions, Communication & Influencing and Managing Quality Service.
