Four different interviewers. Two partners and two junior associates. The partners seemed disinterested. The Junior associates liked me but never followed up. Everyone was on the clock and it seemed like a chore rather than genuine interest in me as a candidate
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Sidley Austin (New York, NY) in Sep 2012
