The interview process was straightforward and easy. I spoke to one of the partners and then met with multiple partners in the office before receiving an offer. The partners all were engaged and interested in learning about me. It was a productive process that left me with a good impression of the firm.

This interview was part of the on campus recruiting process, and it involved two rounds. The first round was held on campus. Then, the second round consisted of several individual interviews at the firm. The interviewing attorneys were all very welcoming and professional, creating a very relaxed atmosphere. Having dealt with the firm since, that seems to be consistent with their culture.

Had a half hour zoom call with the head of department. They were very kind people. They asked me specific questions someone in my field would need to know. As long as you know your stuff, you have a fair chance.
