Interview started off quick. In two/three weeks I had spoken to HR, C suite, and three other managers. I did an exam too. After speaking to the managers, I received a generic email (not even from the HR person I was talking to) telling me I was not selected.
recruiter screening call and two formal interviews. first interview was with two people, last interview was with one person. pretty straightforward interview questions. the recruiter was very nice throughout the process.
I applied online. I interviewed at Jenner & Block (Chicago, IL) in Jan 2026
Interview
Slow and too long. 4 interviews total and there were 2 week gaps in between, even if I responded immediately with my availability.
Last interview with C suite which was unnecessary. It took them two weeks to send a boilerplate email about considering other candidates. Borderline unprofessional.
