I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Brooklyn Legal Services Corp in June 2021
Interview
It was three rounds. The final round was with paralegal, staff attorney, project coordinator, program director, and Executive director. They took turns asking questions from a script. They asked for references and a writing sample after the second round. They got back to me within 3-days of my final interview.

Question 1
Q: Why do you thing you are a strong candidate for this position?
Met with potential supervisor and two other staff. Questions were pretty straightforward, about experience, why choosing them, questions designed to get at thoughts on race/racism and justice but nothing too unexpected.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Brooklyn Legal Services Corp (Brooklyn, NY) in May 2021
Interview
There was one phone screening interview and two Zoom interviews- the first with two deputy directors, the second with the same directors and four other employees including several Staff Attorneys, the Executive Director, and a Paralegal.
I have never had a more pleasant interview process. Everyone was extremely friendly- not intimidating at all. They asked the typical questions you might expect- nothing that really threw me off. The Staff Attorneys were newer, so they were able to speak to the experience from a fresh perspective and helped me know exactly what to expect.
Process was streamlined and hiring director kept good communication between interviews. Asked for three references and a writing sample between the first and second interview. Offer came very quickly after the second interview.
