I interviewed at Fredrikson & Byron (Minneapolis, MN) in May 2014
Interview
The HR department hookwinked me. They gave me no warning about the abusive behavior of the attorneys I would be working for. They told me a lateral move was available to employees during my interview. They later denied me that option when I asked to be transferred.

Interview
Quite easy. I was called in for an interview with HR, and they asked me the usual questions about my experience, why I was interested, etc. I took a typing/proofreading test (10 minutes long). Two days later they called me back, and I met with the attorneys for whom I would be directly working and was given the opportunity to ask questions, get to know them better. The standard interview.
