Do they get paid every week, every two weeks, etc?

I'm talking about at a V20 firm.

Thanks!

Anyone know when the pay cycle begins? I'm assuming they sync us up to the regular payroll, so if my starting date is the 30th do I get paid that week? the week after? Do I get paid in three weeks for two and a half pay periods?

Depends on the firm. Some firms pay every two weeks, some pay twice monthly; monthly and weekly are possibilities too, but I don't know of any off the top of my head that do that.

When your first check will come in will depend on when you get entered into payroll.
