Example role-play film for candidates now online
From today you can see an online example of a role-play exercise of the type you might face during our selection exercises for some posts such as Recorder or Deputy District Judge.
Date: 04 February 2010
Candidates who don't spend their working lives in court say it has helped to spend time watching or workshadowing a judge. This film is another tool to help demystify the process and help you to prepare.
The "candidate" in this example is played by an actor, in the role of a Recorder sitting at the fictitious Boltchester County Court in November 2008. Professional actors play the other main roles, as they will do in a real selection exercise.
