Conversational, competency, motivation. Only a short amount of questions. Everyone was very friendly. Puts you at ease. If you prepare basic competencies you’ll be fine. There were no curveballs but it could change.
I applied online. I interviewed at Perkins Coie (Boise, ID) in Nov 2025
Interview
Over the course of 8 weeks i completed 3 rounds of interviews and skills assessment testing. I ultimately was turned down for the job. Unfortunately I even had to reach out for that status update as there was radio silence for nearly 3 weeks after the 3rd interview. I felt very drug through the mud and hung out to dry.. very disappointing experience from what i understand to be a reputable firm.
