Farahi Law Firm interview questions

Interviewed for a position and unfortunately had one of the poorest candidate experiences of my career. The interview began without the interviewer properly introducing themselves, their role, or even the company. There was no overview of the organization, its culture, the team, or the position. Instead, the conversation immediately shifted into a rigid question-and-answer session. It also appeared that the interviewer had not reviewed my CV prior to the meeting. Several questions focused on information that was already clearly outlined in my resume. As a result, much of the discussion felt repetitive and unproductive. The interviewer showed little to no interest in me as a candidate and my professional experiences and accomplishments. Beyond the lack of preparation, the overall professionalism of the interview was disappointing. At one point, the interviewer turned off their camera without explanation and later returned without acknowledging the interruption. There was also an instance where the interviewer appeared to be speaking with someone else during the interview without excusing themselves or explaining the situation. Basic professional courtesies were noticeably absent throughout the conversation. The interaction felt transactional, disengaged, and at times dismissive. The interviewer also interrupted my responses several times with “got it” before I had finished answering, which made it difficult to fully articulate my experience and provide complete context to the questions being asked. There was little effort to establish rapport, explain the opportunity, or create a genuine two-way discussion about mutual fit. For a role and organization that should value communication and relationship-building, the interview experience reflected the opposite. Interviews are often a preview of a company’s culture and standards. Based on this negative experience, I decided to withdraw my application immediately after the call.
