Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you speak Spanish? Conduct interview in Spanish if so
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Brooklyn Defender Services (New York, NY) in Oct 2025
Interview
Went through two interviews with different people. Mostly straightforward questions about multitasking, experience, ability to work in a group, and interest in the role. Both interviews were short. The second one was 15 minutes.
Two interviews over the phone that were very engaging and gave you an opportunity to explain why you were passionate about the work BDS and similar non profits do. Limited inquiry into grades and more focus on interest and even non law experience
