It was a super easy virtual interview, just one round. Mostly talked about when I'm available, why I wanna work there, and what kind of law I like. Pretty much got the offer on the spot.

The process is standard. You should be ready to talk about your resume and your writing sample. I really think you should put a cover letter in your application. Also, get ready to explain why you decided to go into public service law instead of some other type of law.

It was about a month and a half after I applied when the first round happened, which was an hour-long panel interview with three attorneys. Then, there was a short one-on-one with a senior attorney that was basically a formality. It took several months between the first and second round, and I got an offer a few days after the second one.

I applied through their website and then just waited for a long time. I followed up and they confirmed they got my application and said I'd be contacted soon, so I waited more. After a full year of waiting because I really wanted to work there, I reached out again and was told that many people apply and they apologized for the delay but would get to me soon. In the second year, I finally got a phone call about my application. We reviewed the application I submitted and they told me what they needed from me. Then they said I'd get a call within two weeks to set up an interview if I was qualified, or they'd still reach out if not. It's been almost two months since that call, and I'm still waiting!
