Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite segnalazione di un dipendente. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Kirkland & Ellis (Chicago, IL) nel mese di ago 2017
Colloquio
Multiple interviews over phone, Skype, and in person. Testing in proofreading and excel skills. Interviewed with multiple recruiters as well as senior paralegals and legal assistants. Each interviewer took plenty of time to explain the role of the position, what the work flow was like, what the average day/week was like, etc.

Colloquio
The process is screening then 2 rounds of interviews.
This recruitment process has been the most poorly communicated experience I've ever encountered, that lacks not only in clarity but also in professionalism. While the position attracts a large pool of applicants, it seems that not all offices are genuinely planning to hire externally. Emails go unanswered, and meaningful communication is virtually nonexistent.

Describe how do you manage interpersonal conflicts
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto 4 settimane. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Kirkland & Ellis nel mese di feb 2025
Colloquio
One 20 minute phone screener with a recruiter, then 1-2 formal interviews with attorneys. I was rejected after the screening interview, which is no problem, but was simply ghosted after being explicitly told by the recruiter on the phone that I moved on in the process. Poor communication as the screener was rescheduled the day off and several follow-ups went unanswered.
