USAO Interview Question (CDIL/NDIL/CDCA/SDCA)
Posted: Thu Apr 09, 2026 2:11 pm
I’m considering applying to USAO positions in California and possibly Chicago. As I start preparing my applications, I wanted to ask about the interview process.
I recently spoke with a fairly new hire from NDIL/CDIL who mentioned there may be a writing component during the interview. Does anyone have insight into what that typically involves? For example, is it more like a timed memo, issue-spotting exercise, or something else?
