Applied through school's application process. I had a short screening interview with one person, and then a longer interview with several lawyers. The interviews were conversational and I had plenty of time to ask all of my interviewers questions as well.

Why freshfield? Why law? How do you prioritize you work?
Mostly behavioral questions and very fast paced. Talked a lot about practice area. Questions at the end but not too much time. 20 minutes with a partner. Not too many questions about resume or personal questions.
