J'ai postulé via un établissement d'enseignement supérieur ou universitaire. J'ai passé un entretien chez Freshfields (New York, NY) en janv. 2021
Entretien
Very straightforward and conversational interview. Two interviews with associates and two interviews with partners. Heard back fairly quickly considering and found the virtual format this year surprisingly easy to navigate and interview over. All of the questions were expected and based off of my resume.

Question 1
Why freshfield? Why law? How do you prioritize you work?
Mostly behavioral questions and very fast paced. Talked a lot about practice area. Questions at the end but not too much time. 20 minutes with a partner. Not too many questions about resume or personal questions.
Applied through school's application process. I had a short screening interview with one person, and then a longer interview with several lawyers. The interviews were conversational and I had plenty of time to ask all of my interviewers questions as well.
