Friendly, fair questions. Asked about previous experience relevant to the firm. Left a lot of room for me to ask questions about expectations and clarify my main concerns about the firm
Standard and some behavioral questions. Interviewers were nice, interesting, and smart. Overall great and organized interview experience. This was for a Summer Associate role so standard screener followed by callback interviews.

Why W&C, what practice areas are you interested in, etc.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at White & Case (Warsaw, Masovia) in Dec 2024
Interview
A long interview with native speaker and partners. Interesting choice of questiosn (rather about particular projects than about legal knowledge). I got the impression that they focused on my availability on weekends, which influenced the final decision, despite interesting projects, nice salary and a good team.
