Behavioral Technical

The interview process involved four rounds of interviews over three weeks with admin, support staff, a senior associate, and a partner. I was flexible with my availability, even during my vacation time across different time zones. They were seeking someone with mid-senior level experience but were offering an entry-junior level salary. The offer was quite low considering my career investment, so I had to decline. QE offered a six-figure salary without negotiation, which I did try to negotiate with BSF. It's disheartening when a firm acts like Biglaw for attorneys but not support staff. This overlooked value is significant. Had BSF met me halfway on salary, I would have chosen them.

The interviewer read general questions from a paper and wrote them down. The interviewer seemed flustered but was not a bad person; it just made things awkward and seemed to reflect the high-stress nature of the job.
