Interview was fine. Office work is office work. The questions weren't any different than any other office job/legal assistant work. It helps to know someone, obviously, so if you have a network that can help you out, the interview will be a breeze.

I was contacted by the Head of Paralegals and invited for an interview about 6 months after I applied for the job. I was sent some paperwork to be filled out before the interview. What was strange is that I had to notarize the paperwork, which I only realized 10 minutes before the interview. However, they had somebody in-house who could do it (thankfully, I didn't have to pay a fee to be interviewed!). I had a chat with the Head of the Paralegals who was pretty nice. She asked me some questions that were not too difficult, like why I was looking, why I would be a great fit, some very generic questions that you can find on any website offering job-hunting tips. I seriously almost laughed because she asked exactly the same questions that I had seen on one of these websites. Then she left and I was interviewed by the lead paralegal and one more person. Now that's where it got very awkward because they had no clue whatsoever what to ask. They kept looking at each other uncomfortably and in silence, it was painful. So I had to fill in the silence by chatting away about my qualifications without being asked. It was evident they were caught on the spot - they were simply not prepared or not trained to interview. Anyways, I knew I didn't want to work there right then, and I was not offered the position either.
