I went through several interviews for this role. First, there was an initial and a second interview. After those, I had to take various application tests, including ones for Microsoft and other word applications. There was also a background check. It was pretty intimidating and I didn't know how I was doing on the tests, as no score was given. I think I was timed too. But overall, the people were nice and it seemed like a good firm to work for.
