Anyone know if it's a bad sign if an interviewer isn't taking notes? I did a Sidley interview and he was asking me technical questions about an article and wasn't writing anything lol maybe I'm overthinking

I have an upcoming AC with Bakers Mckenzie for Spring VS. The associate interview will be based on my application form. However, I cannot find a way how to read my application in the platform where I submitted the app.
Any help please.

No - many interviewers don’t like taking notes during an interview. It’s a very personal choice/decision and is nothing to do with your candidacy.

I haven’t heard anything since I sent off my
CMS app, I sent it the day before deadline however. Shall I assume a incoming PFO?
Hey! I asked graduate recruitment as I thought the WG was automatic and they responded with this:

"The Watson Glaser test is only assigned to those who successfully pass the first screening stage (based on their application form). Your application is still being shortlisted which is why you won't have received this yet.

We will be in touch via email as soon as possible to confirm if your application is progressing to the Watson Glaser stage."

That was 2 weeks ago so I assume we are in the same boat (I applied the day before the deadline as well). I think a PFO is on its way as they are already running ACs :(
