The interview process was straightforward and accommodating. They were very on top of scheduling and I interviewed with 3 associates and 2 partners after my OCI screener. They're sharp and will ask you probing questions but were genuinely engaged in the interview process.

It was straightforward and I met some nice people. But then I got ghosted right after the final round with no courtesy of an email or anything. Just like other posts mentioned, this seems like a common thing with this company so heads up

Behavioral
Standard 20 minute screener interview through my school's OCI program. The interviewer seemed very stiff/unengaged and ended 7 minutes early. Other students reported the same experience, with no interview lasting close to the full 20 minutes. The interviewer was a graduate of my school from 11 years ago, and a partner in the firm's antitrust practice. His answers to my questions were relatively detailed, if not particularly original, but without warning he transitioned from answering my last question to telling me that callbacks would go out within 2 weeks and thanking me for coming in. I knew it seemed early, but didn't realize it was SO early until I walked out the door and checked my phone.
