I applied online. I interviewed at Wilmerhale (New York, NY)
Interview
4 interviews 15 minutes each except that one of the interviewers was over 10 minutes late, extending my time with the preceding interviewer to an awkward degree and reducing the amount of time I got to speak with the fourth interviewer because they split my remaining time
20-minute screener interview was very informal. The senior associate interviewing me was very nice, but seemed distracted and didn't ask me many questions. She was also interrupted mid-interview. They emailed me ~2 weeks after the screener to turn me down
