The interview felt relaxed and pretty much a chat, with easy questions. It seemed like for the first round of interviews, your CV and your ability to laugh and smile at the right times are what matter most.

I talked to 2 people from different offices who had very different personalities and backgrounds. It went by pretty fast, but they interviewed over 20 people that day so by the time it was my turn they were noticeably tired.

I had an on-campus interview that started with a cocktail the night before. The next day, I interviewed with two attorneys on campus. It took several weeks to get an email rejecting me, but they were professional and kind even though the wait for the rejection email was long.
