J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Kirkland & Ellis (Boston, MA) en févr. 2020
Entretien
A week after the screening interview with one apartment in my city's office, K&E flew me to Boston for callbacks. The interview consisted of four, twenty-minute interviews (two associates, two partners). Everyone--especially the recruiter who walked me around the office--was very friendly and I left knowing I would have had a good experience with the people there had I received an offer.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
One of the partners asked me to tell him the story of my life.
Very conversational, very easy, multiple people asked about life and school in general terms. Not a challenge at all. Would recommend preparing questions to ask interviewer ahead of time if there is extra time and you need to fill space.

Entretien
The interview process involved two rounds: one screener with one attorney and then a callback with multiple attorneys. The questions asked were quite straightforward and I would recommend keeping questions ready to ask attorneys.
