      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Cooley (Washington, DC) in Oct 2021

      Interview

      One initial screening with department heads. Additional interviews with group members. The interviews were pretty informal. But some interviewers had scripted questions that HR/talent development provided. The focus was on practice area related questions and interest in joining the firm.
