Colloquio
The questions were very much about understanding you, what you also hope to gain from your role, what your goals are. The interview questions were relaxed. After the first interview, they invited for a second and they talked more in detail about what the role involves.

Colloquio
The interview was relaxed and pleasant. The interviewers are primarily looking for a genuine interest in immigration law. However, be aware that the person conducting the interview may not necessarily be the one you will be supporting as a paralegal. The firm tends to reassign new hires based on its needs, so there is a high likelihood—around 90%—that you will end up working with someone else.
There is no need to focus too much on researching a specific lawyer for the interview. The interviewers themselves are approachable and easygoing, without being overly formal or rigid. They appreciate candidates who appear professional but not overly polished. Instead, they value individuals who come across as kind and empathetic, as the firm handles many vulnerable clients, including those with mental health issues, asylum seekers under immense stress, and survivors of domestic violence.
The firm hires from all over the world, so even if you are based in a different country, you have a strong chance of success. It is worth applying.
