Had a terrible experience with this law firm. Expected me to pay fees for someone else's mistake. They were not willing to pay the fees but expected me to. Terrible Terrible
Most of the positive reviews for this firm are from employees
I am a recent hire at Woods Oviatt and Gilman. My experience with this firm thus far has been professional, timely, and meticulous through every step.. My experience through the interview process was very conversation based, and I felt that this firm really took the time to consider my fit inter-personally as well as professionally. This speaks volumes to the work environment they seek to create, and the team that they have to offer their clients. My choice in this firm over others was immediate and I am very much looking forward to working with them.
As a recent hire, the hiring process at Woods Oviatt & Gilman was very efficient and thorough. The process begins with a phone interview, which is possibly followed by an interview with the Talent Acquisition Specialist, which was very helpful with learning more about the law firm, as a whole. Lastly, you interview with the team/department that you are being considered for. The last interview is extremely helpful with understanding what your responsibilities would include, and it familiarizes yourself with individuals who you might be working with. All in all, I found the hiring process to be well-organized and friendly!
I have recently been offered employment at Woods Oviatt after several months of interviewing and job hunting. I have to say the interview process was extremely positive for me. I left my interview with Derek and some of the default team smiling because of how comfortable I felt. Derek has been in constant contact with me about everything and readily available to answer all my questions. Not once have I felt "left hanging" or confused. Everything has been extremely professional and positive. I am excited to start this journey and grateful for the opportunity with Woods Oviatt.
My interview experience with Woods Oviatt Gilman was a very interactive one. Although I was the one being interviewed, I had the opportunity to find out if this firm was the right fit for me. The team told me all about the firm's past, present, and future, and encouraged me to ask anything I wanted to know. People at this firm know how to bring out your true self and they evaluate applicants as a whole and as much more than just a list of skills and qualifications on a resume. I felt at ease and appreciated during my interview as the atmosphere is an extremely positive one. Any workplace that asks what they can do for you and not just what you can do for them, is the ideal place to be.
I was recently hired at Woods Oviatt Gilman. I was recruited by Derek, the Talent Acquisition Specialist. He is a very friendly and pleasant person, so my phone interview with Derek was also friendly and pleasant. After the initial phone interview, I was invited for a face-to-face interview with Derek. He has a way of making the interview process non-intimidating, and this interview taught me more about the firm, and I was able to explain more about what I am looking for in a firm. Derek is very quick to respond to e-mails, and set up an interview with the hiring partner within days of my interview with him. Natalie was also very friendly, and the interview felt conversational. Throughout the process, I learned more about the firm and position, and felt like I was a good fit for WOG, and WOG was a good fit for me. The process overall was extremely positive.
This is a very nice and friendly practice. I was just hired and will soon be starting. Talent Acquisition Specialist Derek, was very nice, the hiring process is fast and smooth. They give you a lot of information and make you feel comfortable on the interviews. Very excited about starting there!
Great experience! Everyone was very helpful and straightforward. I felt like they had my best interest in mind the entire time.
I recently applied, interviewed and was accepted for a clerk position with Woods Oviatt Gilman. I saw the opportunity online after hearing about the firm from a friend of mine who does paralegal work elsewhere. I was initially contacted by Derek, the talent acquisition specialist, about conducting a phone interview. He instantly made me feel comfortable and was extremely informative about the position at hand. From there, I met him in person at the beautiful spacious office. This experience was no different and he again made me feel at ease and asked some important questions for the position. Finally, I met with the team leaders, learned more about each specific position they were hiring for, and eventually was presented an offer that I was very happy to accept! They were prompt at responding, and I would absolutely recommend keeping an eye out for open positions at this firm.
