I would appreciate some insight on the lateraling process - how long does a callback (interview after screener) take? And do they usually ask behavioral questions like they do for first years? Thank you!

I’ve had more callbacks than I can count and I can’t remember anyone asking me a behavioral questions. Usually the interviews are about fit and skill set.

I work at a ‘free market’ firm and have developed a very good reputation among partners. Naturally, they are drowning me in work. Each time a new case comes up, the partner will email asking if I have “time and interest” in helping. When I’m at capacity, I take these words at face value and explain why I can’t do it, and that seems to work out ok with no hard feelings. But what’s the “interest” thing? If I don’t want to work on a toxic tort case, do I just say that and pass?
