I applied through university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Smith Anderson (Raleigh, NC) in Feb 2025
Interview
OCI through school. The interview lasted 20 minutes, asked me why I decided to attend law school and the rest of the time discussed the firm and the associate position.
It was a 2 step process. HR phone screening and then in-person for half day. The half day interview was 3 separate meetings with approximately 15 people. Nice atmosphere, friendly interviewers.
I applied and interviewed with a Senior Associate at the firm. The interview was about 30 minutes long and we covered a variety of questions about the job and the firm.
