I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Ward and Smith (New Bern, NC) in Jan 2012
Interview
Two step interview process. Met with supervising paralegal initially and then two supervising attorneys. Face to face interviews. All interviewers wore suits. Coming from a firm in which the staff wore jeans unless they had court or were meeting with a client, this was a change for me. Overall an easy interviewing process.
