I applied online. I interviewed at Katten (Chicago, IL)
Interview
The interview was relatively conversational without detailed questions about why Katten, as it was a 20 min screener. More general questions about why I chose to pursue law, past jobs, and undergraduate history. But should come prepared with one question to ask the interviewer.
I applied online. I interviewed at Katten (Chicago, IL) in Sep 2024
Interview
Normal process. Phone screening. Conducted a series of three rounds of 1x1 interviews. They were good at keeping you updated on when you should hear back from them. They were open to answering questions.
Quite typical of OCI and other interviews. Nothing unusual, and all the attorneys were very friendly. It was all done through Zoom for both the callback and the screener. The Screener was done with 1 attorney, while the callback was 4 separate 30 min interviews.
