AI interviewing seems like a completely unserious way to go about recruiting. I guess it would make sense if you are being cast in a reality show, but it seems like yet another waste of my time. They already have my tailored resume.

What is the value in even participating with a company that does "AI interviews"?

It seems like a red flag that they are so lazy in their recruiting. Will I be onboarded by AI too? Will AI be writing performance evaluations at this firm too?

I interviewed at a law firm and had my final round last Friday. The Tuesday afterward, I got a call from the recruiter saying the firm won’t have a decision for another week. I believe they’re interviewing other candidates. Does that make me second or third choice? And does the fact that I’m working with a recruiter hurt my chances of being selected due to the commission? Should I hold out for the offer or is 1+ week a sign that I won’t be selected?

Curious if anyone else is or has been in the same boat. I started as an assistant at an entertainment law firm prior to passing the bar. Upon passing, the partner told me they would hire an assistant for me since I now became an associate.

Is this normal in the entertainment world? Any suggestions?
