I applied through a recruiter. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Wilson Elser (Philadelphia, PA) in Aug 2023
Interview
Was scouted by an aggressive recruiter and had two interviews - one remote, one in-person. First interview was pleasant, congenial, and honest. Second interview was less than a week later and barely involved any questions at all, merely a discussion of benefits and an introduction to other members of staff. After that, was told that a decision would be made and communicated within a week. There was then complete radio silence afterward that has continued indefinitely - even after a follow-up with both the recruiter and the interviewer after that week had passed. Disrespectful waste of candidates' time, especially after spending a great deal of time asking whether they would guarantee that they'd take a position if offered. Incredibly unprofessional.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Wilson Elser
Interview
Waste of time. I had 3 interviews, first with the recruiter, then paralegal, then attorney and paralegal. It took about a month in total. I had a positive experience and it seemed like I got the position. I was told they would reach out shortly… after a week I followed up and was told my candidacy is still under review. It has now been two weeks with zero response. This process is making me less motivated to work here. I dedicated a lot of time to preparing for my interview.
Not great, people were rude and weird but I needed the job so I didn’t know what else to do but it was bad so I declined the job it wasn’t great but oh well
During the interview, I was asked myself and also what my parent(s) do for a living and background information. People there can be nice to your face and sneaky behind your back. Attorneys can do no wrong.
