Interviews as a stage of getting to know a potential employee

At Manimama Law Firm, we believe that the best business decisions start with simple communication. This applies not only to partners and clients, but also to those who come to us for interviews. We have consciously chosen the path of “recruiting with a human face,” where the candidate is not an object of verification, but a potential future colleague. And the interview is not a quest for survival, but a format for getting acquainted.


Communication without barriers, but with focus and complete openness

We don’t play “HR vs. candidate.” We talk like people who want to understand whether we will work well together.

Interviews are conducted in a tone of “let’s sit down for coffee to discuss projects,” but without losing focus on the content.

A distinctive feature of our style is maximum openness in feedback right during the conversation. If something alarms us or needs clarification, we will say so directly, without beating around the bush. If, on the contrary, something impresses us, you will find out immediately. We don’t hide behind “we’ll think about it” when we already have a position. We believe that honest communication is a sign of respect.

Therefore, during the interview:

  • we say directly how we see your experience in the context of the role;
  • we can share our internal doubts or expectations and discuss them with the candidate.

This helps avoid speculation and allows both parties to immediately synchronize their perceptions.


An interview is a two-way street

At Manimama Law Firm, we don’t believe in a scenario where only we ask questions. We wait and appreciate it when the candidate also asks questions that interest them.

An equal dialogue is the key to strong matchmaking. We talk about:

  • management style;
  • how we work with KPIs;
  • how adaptation takes place.

It is important to us that a person not only passes, but also consciously chooses us. We honestly answer questions about the schedule and expectations for the role. We don’t need to sell the position, we need to find a mutual fit.


How internal discussions are organized

After the interview, everyone who was at the meeting shares their vision. The format is honest and non-hierarchical: the intern’s opinion has the same weight as that of the department head.

We discuss:

  • professional level (competencies, experience, depth of cases);
  • soft skills (emotional intelligence, proactivity, critical thinking);
  • cultural fit — how comfortable the person will be with our communication style, rhythm, and structure.

Important: we do not evaluate the ideal candidate in absolute terms, but specifically for the position and team. All of this boils down to a single decision: “Will we and this person be happy if we work together?”


Finally, for those who trust us to find people

We promise a lively, honest, and respectful process in which candidates experience reality, not illusion. That is why they come to you not just as hired specialists, but as future partners in a common cause.

We never hide weaknesses, push through questionable candidates, or paint a picture for the candidate that will disappear after the offer. Our style is to speak directly. Both with you and with the candidates.
