Interview
Approximately a 25 minute phone interview with the firm's administrative staff recruiter. While mostly professional, the interviewer sounded as though they were largely uninterested in conducting the interview itself, which was somewhat off-putting from my perspective

I applied online. I interviewed at Milbank LLP (New York, NY) in Feb 2026
Interview
Milbank LLP was super responsive, and the interview process was straightforward. I had a screening call, then heard back for a second round interview after two days. I found out two days after that they decided not to move forward with my application, which was upsetting because it was my top choice. However, everyone was super friendly and it seems like a great work environment.
Quick phone call, one person on the other end just basic questions about experience and your resume/profile. Know your application very well before answering and reasonings behind wanting to work there

Interview
Setting up a date to do a phone screening was kind of disorganized. The person interviewing me didn’t really speak much on the culture nor what the role would look like. Sounded like they wanted to get the interview over with because they didn’t even ask me to introduce myself.
