Interview
The interviewers were friendly. A lot of very technical questions on international arbitration were asked and the interview were akin to an academic discussion in class. The interview lasted for about 1,5-2 hours. Little was asked about my motivations for applying.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Freshfields (Salford, North West England, England)
Interview
Panel/group interview with manager and senior engineer. Asked a series of mixed technical and customer service questions. Manager was not taking notes and asked random questions. Kept standing up and sitting and looking around. Some questions were repeated and then backtracked. Was very disorganised. Never returned calls or sent any feedback. HR pretended the job didn’t exist and interview never happened.
