Re: Detailed C/O 2011 Employment Data (T25)
How did Columbia [70%] (and Penn [68%], I suppose) do so well while Chicago [54%] and NYU [54%] got destroyed?
It's not like the firm GPA cutoffs changed within this band.
Poor advice and bidding from Chi and NYU?

Thanks for the link rayiner. Awesome work jenesais!rayiner wrote:Awesome job guys, love this: --LinkRemoved--jenesaislaw wrote:Law School Transparency's Data Clearinghouse is live for all schools for the class of 2011. --LinkRemoved--
However, I don't think the computation of "long-term, full-time" is done right. Some schools (*cough* NYU) count law school funded positions as long-term, full-time. Others (e.g. Penn) don't count them as long-term, full-time. NYU comes out looking great with 90%, but once you take out the unemployment fellowships, you're looking at a much more average 78%.

My guess is that UChicago's home market (Chicago) got hit really hard because of the economic downturn. As for NYU, I think many people self-selected into PI but ultimately got screwed because PI hiring is way down (not counting law-funded positions).Bronck wrote:How did Columbia [70%] (and Penn [68%], I suppose) do so well while Chicago [54%] and NYU [54%] got destroyed?

Re: Detailed C/O 2011 Employment Data (T25)
That's a good point. I think Northwestern did so well because it placed (c/o 2011) twice as many grads into New York* and was more successful in placing grads into firms of size 100-500 (maybe better bidding advice?). Also, the fact that Northwestern's student body has WE probably helped them outperform their rank.JusticeHarlan wrote: Isn't it hard to say that UChicago got hit due to the downturn in the Chicago market when Northwestern did so well?
*I realize Northwestern's class size is larger than Chicago but not by 2x.

I think people tend to overestimate the impact of GPA targets on hiring. Firms only give offers to a fraction of the people within their desired GPA range. The key statistic is really the # of callbacks the firm authorizes each OCI interviewer to give. This number isn't directly related to the GPA range at that school. E.g. I'd guess CSM/S&C/DPW authorizes 5-10x as many callbacks at CLS/NYU as they do at Michigan or Virginia. That doesn't mean they're willing to go 5x as deep into the class at CLS/NYU as at Michigan. Indeed, I think they go only moderately deeper into the class at CLS/NYU. Rather, they expect to hire a lot more people from CLS/NYU because they expect a lot more people within their target GPA range at CLS/NYU to want to work at their firm.Bronck wrote:How did Columbia [70%] (and Penn [68%], I suppose) do so well while Chicago [54%] and NYU [54%] got destroyed?

When the recession hit, these targets, based on past experiences, were upended. Schools that historically spread out their graduates (Chicago, Michigan, Virginia), sending a few people to each firm in diverse markets, got screwed. A lot of those firms weren't hiring, and the NYC/Chicago firms that were hiring weren't expecting to pick up 10-12 grads from these schools, they were expecting to pick up the usual 2-5. Schools that send a significant number of people to DC (again, Chicago, Michigan, and Virginia), also got screwed as hordes of HYS grads descended on this market. Meanwhile, schools like Penn, Columbia, and Northwestern, which tend to place large numbers of people into a small number of firms in a small number of markets, did relatively well. Firms kept up recruiting at schools they historically relied on for a significant number of hires each year.
The nice thing about this model is that it doesn't require firms making micro-distinctions about class-ranks at Penn versus UVA versus Duke. It recognizes that some firms simply have 10 callback slots at Penn and 5 at UVA because historically they got more hires from Penn, they have more alumni from Penn, etc.

There does seem to be a falling-out of the NYC market. Northwestern reports that the demand for legal services in NYC during the 4th quarter of 2011 fell by 4%, more than any other major market by a factor of 2.Bronck wrote:How did Columbia [70%] (and Penn [68%], I suppose) do so well while Chicago [54%] and NYU [54%] got destroyed?

BC, which weathered the storm okay, sent to NYC less than half the graduates it typically sends; BU, which sent the same portion, got hammered. Schools relying on NYC clearly lost.

As for NYU and PI: one argument was that NYU got fucked because it's students self-selected into PI/gov't. However, if you look at Michigan's stats, they basically got all of their fellowship positions converted into FT PI jobs before the 9 month mark, so someone must have been hiring (and if you look at the Michigan chart, they're likely a good portion of gov't/PI jobs).

Re: Detailed C/O 2011 Employment Data (T25)
I'm not quite sure. Part of it is legit PI preference. NYU gives out a lot of PI scholarships, and scholarship holders tend to outperform grades-wise. That probably doesn't explain the whole gap though. I'd imagine the rest is firm relationships. Some firms (DPW) seem to have equal targets at NYU and CLS, in terms of # of people they expect to recruit. Some firms, like Shulte, seem to have a hard-on for CLS. One interesting statistic is that during the boom, NYU placed less into V10's than CLS. Since those firms cut class sizes the least, I'd imagine CLS benefited relative to CLS there. Finally, NYU is bigger.Greenandgold wrote:Where does NYU fit into this?rayiner wrote:I think people tend to overestimate the impact of GPA targets on hiring.

Re: Detailed C/O 2011 Employment Data (T25)
I think to a degree the market will adjust. Kirkland for example has a ton of Michgan students this summer, way more than either summer 2006 or summers 2010 or 2011. I imagine they've realized there was an uptick in interest at Michigan.TemporarySaint wrote:Great stuff, Rayiner. What does that mean for us Chi, Michigan, and Virginia students going forward?
The other part is I think students being more pro-active at job searching. Once you realize that firm grade cut-offs are more fluid than you had thought, you can work connections, mailing, and pre-OCI lobbying more aggressively. Just because a firm hires more at Penn doesn't mean they would treat a highly-interested Michigan student with the same grades any differently.
I think there is also a third angle, that unfortunately Michigan and Virginia students can't do anything about. I think people dramatically overestimate how much out-of-market firms take account of the differences between schools' curves and class sizes. The leaked (on ATL) Sullivan & Cromwell C/O 2012 OCI data for Michigan is very illustrative. They specified a maximum of 15 callbacks with a 3.7 GPA target. Based on the number of people from NU C/O 2012 who went to S&C, I think we had an advantage both in terms of # of callbacks per student and GPA target. I don't think it's conscious on the part of S&C to prefer NU students, but rather I think NYC firms simply don't care enough to try to make things match up exactly.
I don't think firms fully account for how much the top of the curve is spread out on the NU or Penn curves versus the very compressed Michigan and Virginia curves. I don't think firms fully account for how much bigger the class sizes at Michigan and Virginia are. I don't think firms fully account for how much bigger NU and Penn law reviews are relative to their class sizes than Michigan and Virginia's law reviews. I don't think firms fully account for the fact that NU and Penn have no grade-on to LR, so there is less overlap between people with tippy-top grades and people with LR (and thus a larger %-age of the class who has one or the other). When you historically only get a few students a year from the school, it doesn't really make much sense for the firms to account for these things. They want to just be able to say "15 callbacks for 3.7+ at each of Michigan/Virginia/Penn/Northwestern/Duke".

Re: Detailed C/O 2011 Employment Data (T25)
Rayiner's explanation dovetails mine. Columbia and Penn, being higher-ranked than BU, took all of the smaller number of bids before BU, leaving BU with few. Fewer bids would be caused by the fall-off of demand for NYC legal services.keg411 wrote:No. Columbia/Penn (two of the schools that did well) place primarily in NYC.

Speaking of rankings: the farce the list of schools on the prior page put on (i.e. including their school-funded jobs as long term, full time, bar required) will probably give them a fraudulent boost in the UNSWR rankings, not just their LST Employment Score.
There should be a backlash.
Long term should be "long term." "Long term, full time, bar required" should represent the actual demand of legal employers for a schools' graduates.
Law schools shouldn't use their ABA forms to demonstrate to their students creative construction of the rules-that's what class is for.
