[QUOTE="cortana116, post: 52767, member: 9898"] Hey everyone! Thought i'd create a post interview thread for Davis Polk for the coming days seeing as how a few of us have been waiting to hear back after our interviews (which have concluded). Would probably also be helpful for future people to see the format of the interview, which has changed in its virtual format, i'll share a bit of my interview experience first! Firstly, I was told that DP conducted interviews on 3 days only (Friday, Monday and Tuesday.) I had my interview on Monday with training principal Will Pearce, as well as a finance partner by the name of Nicholas and finally Vivek, an associate. The interview was disarmingly conversational, with no technical questions at all. They're really interested as to why their firm, so be prepared to compare and contrast at a specific level (individual firms). For instance, I was asked about the firms I had applied to, and why. Having come up with common themes in my response which Will seemed to be satisfied with, I was then quizzed about the perceived differences between the firms within this list and Davis Polk, where I think it got a bit tricky. I also noted that traditionally the firm operates a case study, but has decided not to do that now due to the virtual format. Hope this helps and best of luck to the rest of you! Hope to hear about your interview experiences as well. [/QUOTE]
