Philly Callback/Offer Thread

[Anonymous User]

Pepper rejection from my callback today in the mail. Also dings from Skadden and Archer Greiner. Fuck my life, seriously.

Skadden DE? If so, was the ding via snail mail, email or phone?

Dear Duane Morris: email dings are just as effective. I am tired of waiting for an answer.

How long have you been waiting? It will be 6 weeks for me on Thursday, which can't be good.

about two weeks. I have another offer so not that concerned but I really felt like the cb went well so it's confusing.

Has anyone from OCI received rejections from: Skadden (DE), Archer & Greiner, Blank Rome or Stradley Ronon? Total radio silence and its going on 3 weeks for some of these spots.

I received a rejection from Blank Rome by snail mail. Radio silence as well from Skadden DE.

Updating to reflect a ding via snail mail today from Skadden DE. (I am the poster directly above with the Blank Rome ding as well).

For you people with Archer callbacks, how long after your OCI interview did it take to hear back for a call back. Also, how long after your CB did it take to get offered/dinged. Thanks

Any Dechert offers/post-callback dings? Wondering how long after my callback to expect an answer?

dings and offers both seem to be coming out between 1-2 weeks after CB

dings, maybe. but i've heard of some people receiving offers a day or two after their CB.

Odd situation:

I am a transfer student, and was pre-selected for an interview with Saul Ewing while I was at my old school (T25 transfer to CCN). I let them know that I was transferring, and that I was still very interested. Yet they weren't responding to my emails. So a month later, which is today, I get a generic rejection ding email.

Its a bit ironic hearing them say "despite your impressive credentials, we are unable to consider you for an interview". They were very much able, and they pre-selected me at my T25, so I'm not sure how transferring to a CCN (and moving much closer to Philly) could make them change their mind. lol whatever.

What stats does Dechert seem to be looking for? 3.5+, T14?

Okay, this is possible. I know two people w/ offers who got them about a week and a half after their interviews though. It may be a function of the day of the week the hiring committee meets, not sure.

I was 3.5+ (around the top 30% mark) at a DNC, got a callback and dinged.

anybody's who has done a dechert CB, did you need to bring a writing sample or references? i don't see any mention to bring them in my confirmation email, but i don't want to seem unprepared if they will ask for them anyway.

[whywhywhy]

No, but can't hurt.

No. I took them to be safe, but nobody asked.

Archer got back to me about a week after OCI. I know they got back to all of the other people at my school at about the same time because I watched them get up from the library to answer their phone.

Has anyone with an Archer CB heard anything about offers or post-CB rejections? I know they're only in their second week of callbacks but I'm curious.

Was told the process would take a few more weeks. Also told there are 6 spots, 3 of which are already spoken for

Just out of curiosity, what are the most "prestigious" philly firms?
