Keep linking them to the file. Do not spin your wheels for them.
And if they keep doing it gently talk them through what is expected.
Send them the links, tell them to take a look at it, and say you are happy to discuss if they have questions. On paper this makes you look super helpful.
Send the link, give them a call, share your screen on the call and show them where the information is located. So many seniors just sending links expecting junior associates to open the file and just get it. They don’t even know what to look for.
In my team, the junior is in charge of the file and responsible for knowing where everything is. So the situation should be the other way around where the senior asks the junior where to find something and they need to know.
Not sure if it's practical in this scenario, but it helps the juniors understand the structure of the deal and think about a logical way of filing, and it means we are not billing over the odds for basically admin.
Of course some juniors are better at this than others so some people's files are a mess, but this is a different issue...
