I interviewed with HR first, then I spoke with an attorney and a couple of paralegals. The interview itself was okay, pretty simple, but they were really unprofessional afterward and didn't reply to my follow-up emails or calls.

The attorney I spoke with was really nice and made scheduling the interview simple. I ended up meeting with four attorneys on the day of the interview. They all seemed well-informed and mentioned they liked working at the firm. The office environment felt relaxed, and even though the space was small, it was organized well. It was a pretty standard interview process overall. Unfortunately, I didn't hear back after the interview.
