J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Carpmaels & Ransford (Londres, Angleterre) en sept. 2020
Entretien
A recorded online interview where the questions were given through text and you have 30 seconds before you record your answer. After the recorded interview you can then get invited to an assessment day, but I don't know if I got through to this stage yet or not.

Entretien
Proofreading exercise + questions based on a text before interview.
Interview consisted of going through a paper which they sent through a week before, as well as some questions such as “what is a patent”, something about resilience, and what informed your choice to become a patent attorney.
I interviewed 6 weeks ago and still haven’t heard back. They don’t treat prospective employees very well. Although the receptionists were incredibly lovely.
