Very brief. Asked why you wanted to be a public defender and what skills you have that could be beneficial to the position. I applied very early but did not hear back for an interview until may months later. Overall very laid back interview.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Legal Aid Society (New York, NY) in Mar 2023
Interview
Short 20 minute screener with head of recruitment. They actually did most of the talking, but my sense was that they wanted to make sure you were thinking critically about your role as a public defender and your limits in that role.
