I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Liberty Mutual Insurance (Chicago, IL)
Interview
I applied within a few days of the online job posting going up. I did not hear anything for about a month after that. Then I was invited to an in-person interview with the head of the office and about 5 senior attorneys. I was invited back for a second in-person meeting about a week later. That is where they told me they were asking the higher-ups to authorize my hire. Somewhere in this process/concurrently, they ran a background check that took 6 weeks to get completed. Finally, I had a 15-minute phone call with one of the regional general attorneys who approved the salary the local office and I had previously negotiated. The whole process took about 2 months.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Emphasize that you are organized and like structure.
You will have to bill, so do not say you are going in-house so that you can quit billing. Trust me, the billing is manageable even though it sounds high. You will be able to bill for about 90% of your time in the office rather than the ~66% that you see at some private firms.
It is definitely OK to say you want a more stable work-life balance and that, for example. client development/retention outside of normal business hours is a burden.

The second interview is with the senior attorney who overseas all departments. The second interview is with the senior attorney who would supervise the future employee.

The first interview was over the phone with talent acquisition. The second interview was via zoom and it was generally laid-back. The interview process was pretty straightforward and touched upon the job responsibilities and my background.
