Entretien
Submitted employee referral and was asked to interview the following week. Attended interview with two managers. One was more interested in my background and my work ethic, and the other was more interested in my personality and looking to see if I was a good fit with the people, as we spend most time in small teams.

First I had a phone interview. It lasted about a half hour. They asked a lot of basic questions- "tell me about yourself", etc. We went through every line on my resume and I talked a bit about each position. There were a few behavior questions- "tell me what you'd do if you had a conflict with your manager". It lasted about a half hour.
Then I was called in for an in person interview, that was pretty similar. I took a proofreading test that was easy to pass as long as you study basic grammar and capitalization. The interview lasted a bit over two hours and included multiple people, but the questions were pretty basic and similar to the phone interview. They stressed how intense the overtime is in the position- they want to make sure who they hire is prepared for the role.

The interview process starts with a proofreading test. If you pass, Senior legal assistants interview you for their teams, and HR will also ask you a few questions. Everyone is very nice. You can also ask questions about the job. They really want to make sure you know that this job will require a lot of overtime sometimes.

I applied online. About 10 days later I received an email to set up a phone interview. The phone interview took place 3 days later. Less than a week after that I participated in a face-to-face interview with 8 different people over the course of about 4 hours in the morning. It went very well, and all of the people I met with seemed very friendly and intelligent. About one week after the face-to-face interviews, I received an offer an accepted it Come prepared, be personable, and demonstrate intelligence.
