I interviewed at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom
Interview
Pretty standard questions to be honest (why this firm, what area of law you're interested in, situational questions etc). some were very firm specific i.e. how would (topical industry news) affect our clients, which clients, and why.

I interviewed at Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom (London, England)
Interview
basic competency questions, commercial awareness questions. not many follow ups. To start with they wanted to know my motivations for wanting to work in law. They then moved on to learning about times when I demonstrated qualities that they looked for. They also asked me a bit about my commerciality and a focus on AI.
