I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at McGuireWoods (Chicago, IL) in Jun 2023
Interview
(1) initial screener with the recruiter, who essentially just asked what questions I had about the firm and then provided a sales pitch about the summer program (2) a callback consisting of three interviews, each with two attorneys (2 litigation partners, 2 corporate partners, 2 associates) Everyone was genuinely nice and easy to talk to. Typical law student interview questions--nothing difficult or surprising. It was easy to fill the time.
