Describing the interview process : they asked normal questions. It is what you would expect from any associate position. Prepare as you would for any other firm. Nothing unexpected or weird.
The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Cassiday Schade (Chicago, IL) in Aug 2010
Interview
The first interview was with two associates at the firm. About a week later, I got a call to return for a second interview, conducted by two partners at the firm. Both interviews were pretty brief, about a half-hour long each. They consisted of general questions, such as what brought you to this firm, or what sort of law do you want to practice.
