Colloquio
I networked through my college's alumni group and got to know two current employees. They submitted my application through the employee referral system and that got me a phone interview. It was short, basically going through my resume and asking about my future plans/goals. I then went in for an in-person interview and talked with five different people and took a brief proofing test. I got a call back within a week.

Colloquio
It was an alright process; two rounds: one was a 15 min phone call and was asked administrative questions. Second was an in-person interview that lasted about 45 mins. was ghosted for 2 weeks after and had to reach out multiple times to get a response.

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.

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.
