J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Secerna (York, Angleterre) en oct. 2024
Entretien
I applied via email (cover letter & CV). I was invited to an interview over teams with one of the partners. Lovely lady, standard interview questions i.e why do you want to be a patent attorney? What do you know about what we do? Tell me about yourself etc... This was followed by an in person interview with another partner with similar questions from the first one and this concluded in a short test where I had to write a claims based on a common item they had given me. Feedback for this test was given instantly. Heard back one week later with a rejection, no feedback followed which I think is unfair. Overall positive interview experience, good luck to anyone reading this in prep! Just be yourself.

Sent an email with my cover letter and CV and was later invited to an online interview. The interview was standard for this type of role and was well structured, however communication following this was poor and I received no feedback.
