The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Baker McKenzie (New York, NY) in Aug 2007
Interview
This was a lateral position to work directly for one person. So I only met with that person and with a member of the recruiting staff. After the interview, I was asked to provide references. They were checked quickly. Everything else went through my headhunter. It was a relatively quick and painless process.
the interview process was well structured, the interviewers were respectful. I wouldn't say it was difficult, yet I had to be well prepared. I was asked questions of my experience and laws of Kazakhstan
For a position as a young lawyer, I was asked about my previous experience that I gained while working as an intern for other law firms, specifically related to the field I was applying for.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What were your responsibilities in your previous internships?
Horrible interview, My Partner was on a power trip and was rude. Traumatising experience- never again Unfair interview process as well, all applicants asked different questions so it was inequitable. Also got the vibe that the firm lacked diversity and just pretended to care about diversity but really did not.
