      Summer Associate Interview

      4 Feb 2026
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through university. I interviewed at McDonald Hopkins (Chicago, IL) in Jun 2025

      Interview

      Typical interview process. 15-minute screener into final callback with various attorneys at the firm (mixture of partners and associates). They seem like they try to match you with people in your practice group interest. Although, I networked before my interviews, so it might have been a coincidence. I'd recommend being careful about expressing interest in one of their smaller practice groups. I expressed interest in one of their smaller groups (that they probably didn't have a need for in my cycle), and ended up not getting an offer.

      Question 1

      Why McDonald Hopkins? Other very typical interview questions. They had a pretty big interest in knowing why you wanted to work for them. My guess is they didn't want to be lumped into the 400 other firms you're applying/interviewing with.
