The Interview Process
Arbitration Technical Screen
Deep dive into the differences between ICSID (investor-state) and ICC/LCIA (commercial) rules, the New York Convention on enforcement, and complex jurisdictional challenges.
Procedural Strategy Scenario
You are given a complex fact pattern involving an expropriated asset. You must draft an advisory memo recommending the optimal arbitral forum and outlining the immediate interim measures to seek.
Partner Panel
Assessing your intellectual combativeness and ability to synthesize mountains of complex cross-border evidence into a compelling legal narrative.
Real White & Case Interview Questions
Practice these exact questions faced by previous Associate (International Arbitration) candidates.
1(Investor-State Arbitration) Our client, a massive mining conglomerate, has had its primary mining concession abruptly revoked by a South American government without compensation, allegedly for 'environmental' reasons. Walk me through the specific legal mechanics of initiating a claim under the relevant Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT), specifically arguing 'Indirect Expropriation' and a breach of the 'Fair and Equitable Treatment' (FET) standard. (Public International Law / Strategy)
2In a high-stakes ICC commercial arbitration, your opponent appoints an Arbitrator who has previously published academic articles strongly criticizing the exact legal theory your case relies upon. Walk me through the tactical threshold and the procedural steps required to successfully 'Challenge' and remove that Arbitrator for lack of independence or impartiality. (Arbitral Procedure / Tactics)
3(Advocacy) You are cross-examining the opposing party's quantum expert (who is calculating damages in the billions) during a hearing in Paris. The expert is highly evasive and refuses to answer your direct 'Yes or No' questions, instead pivoting into long, complex economic lectures. How do you legally and rhetorically force them to concede the flaws in their DCF model without alienating the Tribunal? (Cross-Examination / Evidentiary Strategy)
4Explain the strategic process of enforcing a $500 Million ICSID arbitral award against a sovereign state that completely refuses to pay. Walk me through the mechanics of locating and attaching the state's commercial assets globally, while navigating the severe complexities of 'Sovereign Immunity'. (Enforcement / International Law)
5Tell me about a time you had to master an incredibly complex, highly technical subject matter (e.g., semiconductor manufacturing tolerances or deep-water drilling engineering) in a matter of weeks to effectively draft a Statement of Claim. (Learning Agility / Analytical Rigor)
