Gibson Dunn first round interview! Does anyone have any insight as to what to expect? The email says we don't have to prepare, would people who have completed it agree with this?
Passed both rounds and got the VS offer this cycle. In the interests of fairness I won't disclose anything about the interview, but they really mean it when they say you don't have to prepare anything in advance- it's not a trick interview.

That's reassuring to hear thanks mate. Congrats on your offer!
