I applied online. I interviewed at DLA Piper (Washington, DC)
Interview
The interview was a digital interview. It was pretty easy as it seemed like a normal phone interview that you may have with a recruiter. There were a total of 7 questions and you were given 30 seconds to prepare for each question. Once you have completed the digital interview you were sent a link to complete an online assessment. This skills assessment takes about 2-3 hours to complete as it analyzes your skill level.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
During the interview they ask you to explain why you are the best candidate for the job (as most companies do.)
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at DLA Piper (Manchester, Inglaterra) in Sep 2019
Interview
2 hour interview with two members from the support team who were really warm and friendly. They made me feel very comfortable and seemed to genuinely enjoy working there. They were also open about the challenges they experience and provide a more realistic idea of what to expect in the role and the ideal candidate best suited to their work environment.

I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at DLA Piper (Londres, Inglaterra) in Jan 2019
Interview
Very good, very engaging and insightful. Nice offices, very new and clean. Interview process consisted of 2 interviews, allowing me to meet several people from the team. Interview lasted around 30 mins each time
I applied online. I interviewed at DLA Piper (San Diego, CA) in Sep 2017
Interview
Before you ever speak to a live person, via phone or face-to-face, they put you through a very time-consuming, awkward "digital interview". A live person asks you a question, and you have 3 minutes to answer while literally talking to your own reflection. It's so impersonal and very hard to accurately convey responses when self-consciously staring at yourself. Then I took a 2.5 hour assessment of my software skills which was fine. But it also included a personality test where you choose which of two statements best fits you. Sometimes neither are very fitting...nor flattering. After committing all that time to the process, I received, via email, a rejection letter (which had a typo by the way - rather ironic!) It was the worst interview experience I ever had.

Question 1
I think someone else on here already covered these questions (approx. 7) including your use of technology to improve a process, being on a team, why do you want to work here, etc.
