Schiff ding in the mail yesterday.

When was your callback? Also, what school, if you don't mind me asking?

No callback, just a post-screening ding that took a while. I am at NU.

I got a Schiff ding 2 weeks after the callback. My sense is that they are hurting real bad.

Has anyone heard from Wildman Harrold?

Still waiting here. I know a guy who has been given a post-CB rejection, however. Wildman is cool, but I wonder if they are a little unstable and perhaps shaping up to merge. 3 offers from 17 SAs a year ago is also scary. Still, a job is a job, especially in this economy.

Any word from Wildman? I still have nothing and my callback was a long time ago.

Any updates on PH? My callback was many weeks ago and I haven't heard anything. I am also under the impression that they are not the type of firm to send out dings at the end of the process. Please correct me if I am wrong.

McDermott offer as of 30 mins ago (9/24).

Congrats!

Thank you sir/ma'am. First response of 5 CBs - everything from here on is a bumper crop.

Can you please share when you had your CB, and with which practice you interviewed?

Sorry for the late reply. Had the CB exactly 2 weeks before the offer was made (9/10) and I interviewed with their corporate practice group.

Has anybody been dinged post-callback at Sidley? If so how long did it take to get the news?

[Anonymous User]

I have a buddy that got dinged post-callback about a week ago from Sidley. No idea of the callback to ding time.

Almost three weeks for me. Guessing they are just waiting to give us the axe. (Post OCI dings took a month)

The steak was a little overcooked, but still juicy. I didn't care for the salad though, too much vinegar. Overall, a good meal.
