My initial contact was with two attorneys at a job fair. I spoke with them at length, which piqued my interest in the job, which I had not thought I was interested in. Law school keeps a person very busy, however, so I did not contact the administrative assistant, whose name they had given me -- but I received an email asking if I was going to apply, so I commenced the process. The administrative assistant was extremely professional and prompt with her emails and instructions, and I was very impressed with her. The application was something like 12 or 13 pages, quite a process -- When I went in for the interview, I was really hoping for the same rapport I'd had with the attorneys at the job fair, and the administrative assistant who'd been so helpful. Instead I was told I'd be interviewing with A -- when I arrived at her office, another woman was there to whom I was briefly introduced ("B"), and who I subsequently discovered was also an attorney -- by the time I figured it out, I had been giving her far too little attention. Furthermore, I was asked about my husband -- and the response to my astonished look was that my interviewer pointed at my wedding ring. I was also asked whether I had kids. I was totally unprepared for these questions. I have a general idea of what can and cannot be asked in an interview, but as I was applying only for an internship position and on the spot, I was caught off guard, and I was really conflicted. I was also asked extensively about my past -- a criminal history from my teenage years over a decade ago that I willingly disclose but that is far, far behind me (and it took a long time to put it there), and which, in my mind, has little bearing on today. The experience started out great, but turned very sour -- which is actually alright with me. Better to know sooner than later that you're not a good fit somewhere!
