    I have a few questions:

    -Should I bring copies of my resume in a folder?

    -Are the manager/partner interviews usually separate interviews?

    -How long does it take to get an answer from them about an offer? Seems like most people who receive offers receive it the same day of the interview.

    Thank you

    I brought resumes with me, but they have a copy when you get there–still it seems like having a few on you is a good idea. I don't recall if I printed my questions, seems like I would have. Make sure you have some great questions.

    Your interviews should be individual, for various firms it was 2-3 interviews, with 1-2 managers and 1 partner

    Received offers the same day or next day.

    1 – Yes, bring extra copies. 95% of interviews I have been on the interviewer is prepared, but in the few cases where they are not ready, it helps to have extra copies.

    2- Yes, usually separate interviews. This gives each a chance to get to know you and you to know them and ask them questions.

    3- I'm assuming this is an office interview, but each firm is a little different. Larger firms may be quicker to offer since they don't have exact targets to hit and can offer on a rolling basis. Smaller firms may want to finish office interviews before extending offers since they have a smaller target range of hires. Some are same day, others next day, and others may be within a few days. I've gotten offers on day of or next day, but it all depends.
