Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Thompson, Coe, Cousins & Irons.
Associate
The interview process was pretty standard. It started with a call, then an in person interview. The interviewers were kind and asked great questions. It was a two person interview.
- Tell me about a time you missed a deadline or made a mistake and how you dealt with it.
Associate
After applying online, I went through one in-person interview. This involved meeting with two different groups of attorneys, one group of associates and one group of partners. About two weeks later, I got a phone call with the offer, and the formal offer letter arrived in the mail not long after.
- Can you tell me about yourself?
- What would your past colleagues say about you?
Summer Associate
I applied for a Summer Associate role via my law school's career center. The first interview was a personality test and felt very casual, with a partner and a junior associate interviewing me. The second round involved coming into the office for three 20-minute interviews with different partners. These were all very relaxed and comfortable, mainly asking standard questions. A few days later, I received an email saying I wouldn't get an offer.
- Could you tell me a bit about yourself?
- What made you decide to pursue a career in law?
- What interests you about our firm specifically?
