I had a brief 20-minute Zoom interview with an associate and a partner, each for about 20 minutes. It felt like a relaxed conversation during this initial screening, covering general topics. We mostly talked about my background, resume, and my interest in law and this specific field.

So the interview process was like, first a screener, and then I had back to back 1 on 1 meetings with partners for rounds two and three, all on site. I ended up meeting with around 8 people total. They were initially setting me up for associate calls, but I didn't actually get to that stage because they told me they were looking for someone with more experience. The whole thing took about 3-4 weeks from when I applied until they made their decision.

So I had a phone screen first, then I interviewed in person with some partners and associates. They asked a lot about my past experiences, why I wanted to switch firms, and why I was interested in Fisher Phillips. The whole thing took a few hours.
