Very professional and interviewing attorney was personable. It didn’t feel too much like they were fishing for exact answers or a prototype; rather, interested in who they were actually speaking with.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Kopon Airdo (Chicago, IL) in Mar 2016
Interview
My interview was at 2 pm, but I was not interviewed until 3 pm. I understand that there will often be a wait, so this was not a deal-breaker. However, listening to the Partner yell at a client during that hour was unnerving. The Partner also explained that he recently fired/let go of all of the Associate Attorneys "last week," and explained it was related to their lack of time management skills.
All I thought was, what kind of firm is this if you let go of all of your staff last week?
