I applied online. I interviewed at Kobre & Kim (Seoul) in Dec 2024
Interview
The first round was not with a person but with self-recording interview done through webcam. There are sets of questions that pop up on the screen and then you have a set amount of time to answer. The second round was with someone who is actually working in the role of litigation assistant at the firm. The only downside is that while the interview was mostly conducted in English, the one Korean question was done by someone who is not fluent in Korean. As someone who is perfectly bilingual, I had trouble understanding what the interviewer was trying to ask. His Korean was very poor and could not even understand my answer properly.
