Sam has just found out that he has received an invitation to interview for an internship. Sam is aware that if he impresses members of the various departments at Manchester Law it may lead to a training contract at the firm. Sam has been told by Deb, the HR Manager at Manchester Law, that during the internship, the successful candidate would spend time in each of the following two departments: Contracts and the Corporate Division. As part of the interview process, Sam is given a set of questions. One question relates to the two departments in which she would work during her internship.
