What questions will be asked in an internship interview?

How do I know if I did well at an interview for a legal internship?

• I interviewed recently for an in-house legal counsel internship at a technology company. It was the 2nd round of 3 interviews, and I was interviewed by 3 attorneys within the company, 1 attorney at a time. Each attorney conversed with me for about 40 minutes. At this point, I am 1 of 6 candidates. All 3 attorneys asked me predictable questions: what I wanted to do for my career, why I went to law school, why I'm a good candidate, etc. I answered the questions fluidly and asked some of my own. The attorneys seemed personable and friendly, and there were no awkward moments. It just seems too easy. I can't shake the feeling that they were looking for something I didn't offer. On the other hand, I could be completely paranoid. How do I (or anyone else applying for a similar position) know if I did well at the interview?

• Answer:

  If I could answer that question more often I would be making a lot more money. I work at http://Interns.org and have assisted hundreds if not thousands of interns find placement. I've had interns who were sure that they blew it get placed, and I've had interns come back feeling that they knocked it out of the park get passed on. In the end, all you can do is your best, which it sounds like you did. If you get the internship, keep working as hard as you did in your interview, and if you don't get it, keep trying. I wish there were a way that you could know for sure how you did, but you just won't until they make the call to you or one of the other candidates.
