I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Kirkland & Ellis (New York, NY) in Feb 2021
Interview
Great interviewee. Tough questions. First round screener. Then callbacks. Then offer. Make sure you ask thoughtful questions that are complex and develop the conversation. Do not sound robotic. They are looking for cool hard workers.

Question 1
Tell me about yourself Listed things off my resume Know current events
Easy process, no hard questions, very conversational but not much real substance to the process. Hard to judge how you did based off the interview. Very little even behavioral questions were asked.
The interview was easy, three attorneys, two partners and one associate. Not super formal and did not ask much about specific knowledge of corporate or transactional work. Overall, the interview was easy.
Done through law school. Did not feel rigid. Was conversational. Mostly about connecting and ensuring we had a good relationship. Nothing technical or even remotely technical. Then had a follow up.
