I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Wiley Rein (Washington, DC) in Jun 2024
Interview
Really typical pre-OCI interview. First rounds and final rounds were all virtual and then I got to meet some partners and associates at the office. Everyone was so nice and everything was very straightforward.
I had a 20-minute Zoom interview with two attorneys (one partner, one associate). It was overall pretty generic except for when they asked about a couple of things on my resume. A couple of weeks later the recruiter emailed me to tell me they wouldn’t give me a callback.

Question 1
Why do you want to work at Wiley Rein specifically?
20 minutes screener & callbacks with a few attorneys on Webex. It was the average OCI/law firm interview experience, nothing surprising. Everyone was very nice and easy to talk to, recruiters were very pleasant
