SULS Client Interviewing Multilateral Competition 

In 2020, SULS introduced a new Multilateral Client Interviewing Competition, intended to increase the number of opportunities for skills competitors to compete on the intervarsity stage. Given the current situation regarding COVID-19, the 2020 competition was held online via Zoom with no registration fee. 

Conditions of Entry

Universities are invited to register up to two teams of two members. 

Each team must be accompanied by a judge (experienced student or recent graduate) and their own client. Teams will not be interviewing their own client or judged by their own university’s judge and every effort will be made to avoid conflicts of interest.

It would be strongly preferred if universities could accompany their team’(s) registrations with a fresh problem question.

Two preliminary rounds will be held on Saturday, with Semi-Finals and Grand Finals held on Sunday. 

The competition rules are available here.
