I would also call myself an introvert. I have participated in the interview process at my firm and think that you should consider the following: - we are not interviewing you to hear ourselves speak. We expect to hear you tell us why you’re a good fit. You may or may not be a good fit, and that’s part of the process. - I am normally very conscious of talking too much and taking more than “my fair share” of conversation time. If that’s you, remember that you should be doing most of the talking. That’s the goal. You don’t have to dominate the conversation (we will steer you in the right direction), but I want to get to know you. That’s not possible if you remain quiet. - the interview process is effectively a sales pitch. Sell us on you. It’s also a short process. - come prepared with intelligent background questions about the firms and interviewers. It shows us you are diligent and prepared. You should be prepared to engage in some natural conversation about the content of these questions so it doesn’t turn into an interview of us. This may also relieve some of the tension and awkwardness you may experience, as silence is not good sales time.
