is it true that some firms will give you an interview as long as you request one?
e.g.

scroll to the middle of the page.
'if you are 1L or 2L ... requesting an interview"
the offices are pretty small. how could they handle?

Re: interview request
What? No. That just means you can apply. When you send resume/transcript to any firm you are effectively "requesting an inverview" but that doesn't mean the firm will actually grant the request!

If you've got the grades, then apply.

Re: request
I can tell you from experience that Zelle Hoffman does not give you an interview just for requesting one. In fact they are one of the few firms that never sent me any sort of confirmation that they even got my application (I've actually applied to them twice and got the same silent treatment both times).

Re: request
silent treatment is the norm these days. I wouldn't blame them. they got so many every day.
are there firms out there that tend to give interviews when requested? (e.g. by sending personalized emails not by sending form applications)

Re: request
I've only heard nice things about zelle (collegial environment) but I guess you need to get your foot in the door to be able to appreciate that. silent treatment is so typical
