The interview process is long with many rounds. From my experience and talking to others, there's a significant wait between each stage before getting any feedback, which can be annoying.

It was a pretty long process, and I didn't get super clear communication throughout. I had to do a lot of chasing for updates, though that might have been because I was dealing with a recruiter and not directly with the office.

Had two rounds of interviews with a mix of associates and partners. Everyone was really nice, asked good questions about my background, and gave me a general idea of what the job entails. It was a good experience.

Applied through a recruiter. Was set up for a Zoom interview but it froze and disconnected. They didn't try to reach back out or answer any further questions. No explanation was given for why no offer was extended.
