I had to record myself answering several questions and then given an hour and a half skills test. I did not interact with staff members at all during this process.
J'ai postulé via la recommandation d'un employé. J'ai passé un entretien chez DLA Piper (Washington, DC) en juin 2026
Entretien
Got a referral and was sent a link for a virtual interview through VidCruiter. You don't get to see the questions beforehand and for most of the questions you only get one take to answer them.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
Tell us about yourself - Why did you leave your previous job? - Why do you want to work at DLA Piper? - Describe a time where you were given a task that you didn't know how to complete.

Entretien
Several rounds of interviews within a few hours. First met with paralegal team, then with associates, then with partners. Everyone was extremely laid back and nice. The partners weren’t intimidating and nobody grilled me with tricky questions. Very much just a conversation of why I was interested in the position and my previous background.

Entretien
Had a phone screening then in-person interviews. The first in-person interview was with a paralegal, the second was with an associate, and the third and fourth were with partners. The interview wasn’t difficult. Just general questions about why I wanted to work at a law firm and what my previous experience was. Everyone was super nice - even the partners!
