OT Lawyers: how to prepare for an interview?

I have an interview at a law firm coming up. The problem is that there is no job description for the position. I found out an attorney recently left the firm and sent my resume and a writing sample in. They emailed me back the next week to schedule an interview. In the past I used the job description to prepare for the interview and how my skills fit the job description. How do you prepare for an interview where there is no job description?

Wear a seersucker suit and speak like they think people from New Orleans speak on TV. They'll hire you on the spot

Well surely you know what kind of law the firm practices. I would assume it might have something to do with that. You're critical thinking seems lacking for someone who wants to be a lawyer.

I knew I could count on the OT to keep me humble.

Be yourself and rely on your knowledge. If you want to be long term, dont you want your natural instincts to be a fit, making your happiness there long lasting

Can you not research the firm and see their main practice areas? If you can, do it. Have a few questions about the firm prepared to ask (even if you already know the answer to those questions). That will at least show you are interested.

Refer to the youths as "Utes" and you're in.

Whip out your dong and watch them be amazed

Are you fricking serious?

Based on this thread I'm going to go out on a limb and say you don't have a shot at landing the gig unless it's insurance defense, PI work, or some other sweatshop type of practice

What did the attorney who left do? That’s probably a good start to identify what they will be looking for.
