I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Orrick (San Francisco, CA) in Feb 2021
Interview
Easy-going, conversational flow, asked why I wanted to be at Orrick, what I am looking for, what type of work I did in the past. Nothing that was a trick question or looking to mess me up

Question 1
Why Orrick? What are you looking for in a firm? What are some past experiences in x field?
The interview contained several unnecessary questions that did not seem relevant to the position. Despite receiving positive feedback, the final outcome was a rejection for reasons that were vague and unexpected.
