I have an interview next week that I am preparing for and the role requires knowledge of employment law. This area is not one I feel confident in but I know the basics. Can anyone think of employment law questions that may arise? or have any experience of answering this sort of interview question. I feel it's such a broad subject it's impossible to know everything by memory.
You are right its a very broad area and they are unlikely to be expecting you to have Employment lawyer like levels of knowledge
Their questions are likely to be linked to the type of business they are in and the typical challenges they will be facing. So if you think about some typical scenarios and what employment law may well apply.
Old favourites tend to be around the WTRs, NMW etc. Or could well be more linked to ER type situations (there was a thread recently on being asked about the most complicated ER case you have dealt with that's worth a look)
