Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Lewis Brisbois Bisgaard & Smith.
Associate
The interview happened over Zoom with two partners. It was mostly a Q&A. I didn't feel tested or judged, it was low stress and easy. This might differ depending on the office though.
- Can you tell me about your experience in specific fields?
- What's your background in insurance defense?
- How have you handled billable hours in your previous roles?
Associate
Scheduling was a little tricky but I met with the managing partner and three partners at the Hartford office. They asked me to meet with an associate, but none were available. I was a bit uncomfortable with some of the questions the managing partner asked, as they felt more like reconnaissance on the competition rather than genuine interest in my work and experience. They also didn't validate my parking.
- Could you tell me which insurance companies you are currently working with, and what your hourly rates are?
Summer Associate
This was an on-campus interview, and I generally had a positive experience. The interviewer was well-prepared and asked precise questions that are common for a litigation firm. The overall environment felt welcoming and personal.
- Could you tell me about your favorite movie?
