Note: This is the second of three columns (to be published weekly) about searching for a job at a law department. Read the first installment here.
When looking to join an in-house legal department, you will meet a variety of interviewers. Some will be lawyers and others not.

You may encounter good interviewers having a bad day, inexperienced or unprepared interviewers, or those who have ineffective methods for eliciting the information they need to make the best hiring decisions.
