      Paralegal Program Specialist Interview

      Jul 2, 2022
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Chicago, IL
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Kirkland & Ellis (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2022

      Interview

      The process was mediocre at best. Management did not care to provide the full scope of my role. It was very casual and borderline unprofessional. I was hoping for a robust and professional introduction to the firm and to the paralegal program.
