We get our preliminary schedule on July 17th, although you have to fill out the summer employment evaluation first.

Edit: Also, the deadline for interview cancellation and waitlist opt-in was pushed back until August 5, in case anyone didn't see the email.

Throwing this out there as a resource while we wait for our interview schedules!

PSA - Schedules aren't up yet, but you can see how many interview spots employers have left now that the lottery has been run.

Waitlist Review Jul 17, 2:00 pm to Aug 05, 11:59 pm
Cancellations Jul 17, 1:00 pm to Aug 05, 11:59 pm

Sooo...I'm guessing our schedules will come out at 1 or 2?

Thanks! That provides a helpful preview.

Bids are up!

Got 27 interviews total (!!) but missed a lot of the large NY offices.

Does anyone know what Skadden and Clifford Chance cleared at?

Although I guess it's down for maintenance right now so maybe we'll be seeing some changes.

If you opt into a WL and you get it, will the system automatically drop whatever interview you had in that timeslot? I know we have to take the WL interviews we get but I'm not sure about the timing issue.

For some reason I was thinking that we could only get a WL interview if a spot opened up on the employer's schedule that matched one of our free spots - like if someone else dropped that interview. I don't think that the system will remove you from another interview (even if you bid it lower) to get you into a WLed one. But honestly I'm not 100% sure, I'm going to see if I can find the official OCS answer for this somewhere online!

Does anyone know when this maintenance is supposed to be over?

I just checked the handbook and you're correct. Thanks!

I missed Sidley Austin at 4 and Clifford Chance at 15. UGH. Also missed Hughes Hubbard at 23, Kramer at 25 and Orrik at 27. Anyone know when those cleared?

In all I got 23 interviews.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Fri Jul 17, 2015 4:03 pm

So what do we do to be considered for the wait list? Just press opt-in? (Why wouldn't we just wait list ourselves to every firm we missed?)

I missed clifford chance at 16, we were so close yet so far. Haha
I only know DC for Hughes Hubbard (25)/Sidley (14) and SF for Orrick (32), sorry! I missed Sidley and Hughes Hubbard for NY.

Got Sidley NY at 3 so it must have cleared at 3.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Fri Jul 17, 2015 4:11 pm

24 interviews, which is a little lower than I was expecting considering how hard I gamed the system, but got 17/20, and pretty sure #18 I conflicted out of rather than underbid, so all in all very happy!

For those asking, got Sidley at 2, Skadden at 4.

Missed Paul Hastings at 5 and Morgan Lewis at 20- anyone know where that cleared?

Skadden cleared lower than 4, got it at 11.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Fri Jul 17, 2015 4:18 pm

Whoooooaaaa - I now have 25 interviews instead of 24. It definitely said 24 before the site went down a little while ago. Can't figure out which one is new though.

Anyone else have this happen? Different # of interviews, higher or lower, than before the site went down? Not complaining but....

28 interviews, conflicted out of 9. Happy with the results.

Do people usually get more interviews from the wait list?
