1 one 1 interview asking questions about my law school background and interests in criminal law. Asked about my writing sample, which was a moot court brief, and wanted to know my objective perspective about the criminal procedure question at issue.
I applied online. I interviewed at US Department of Justice (Washington, DC) in Aug 2023
Interview
The interview process was a typical government style with an application on their website, then HR email details, then an interview with 3 people from different sections. Interview was structured but people were nice and friendly.
Standard questioning on application and writing experience. Sought interest in assisting the goals of the component and overall mission. Nothing out of left field. Interviewed with multiple attorneys in different practices. Some were more interested than others. Very standard questioning like reading off a list.
