Zuber Lawler interview questions

I had an initial screening with a really nice lady and then an interview with the marketing coordinator, who was also pretty nice, along with an assessment. The reason why my experience was negative is because they make you take an assessment without providing you with the proper tools/software to take it or warning you ahead of time what tools you would need. I found that incredibly stressful and a complete waste of time. It honestly made me not want the job because I could only imagine what processes/technology is lacking in the actual role. Additionally, there was 0 follow-up even though I basically went through 2 rounds of interviews. So long story short, people were nice, process was bad and inefficient.

The interview process was pretty straightforward. I met with a few partners and enjoyed speaking with each and every one of them. I received an offer soon thereafter, and it was fairly generous. I declined the offer largely because of what I thought was a grossly deficient PTO policy. At the time, the firm provided a mere 10 days of PTO per calendar year. Although employees accrued an additional 9 days of sick leave they were limited to taking only 6 of those days per year. By my count that made for a total of 16 days. For a law firm looking to attract some of the best talent in the market, and competing with larger, more well-established firms to do so, the PTO policy was seriously lacking. And given the nature of the industry (which is an extremely stressful one), the policy made me think management was either unreasonable or oblivious.
