I have 9 Hs out of 14 with two prizes, no law review, and secondary journal. I'm an average interviewer with 2 years of WE. What's my likelihood of landing a DC firm? I'm most interested in Gibson, Wilmer, Covington, and W&C. Do I have any shot at all? My OCS person is not helpful.

Nope. No chance at all.

Ok, so what does it take?

you realize we have grade data available for all those firms, right?

I had an identical resume. Ended up with an offer from Wilmer, but did not get callbacks from the others. My guess is that you have a shot at all of them.

You're definitely competitive for Covington, Wilmer and Gibson, I'm not sure what that other poster could have meant. W&C probably a stretch.

Any A&P callbacks?

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Wed Aug 12, 2015 3:22 pm

A & P SF callback call today

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Wed Aug 12, 2015 4:02 pm

A&P DC CB.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Wed Aug 12, 2015 5:38 pm

Skadden and Cooley PA. I don't think either is done.

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Wed Aug 12, 2015 6:43 pm

Do CBs happen over a couple of days or if people got them and you didn't can you assume you're out? Also, are they by phone or over email?

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Thu Aug 13, 2015 12:47 am

Pretty sure all callbacks are my phone. Previous years I've read they can occur over a few days, even from the same interviewer.

2 CB's today- A & P; Sheppard & Mullin, both SF
1 ding- Skadden (PA)

They may mostly be by phone, but email is definitely a possibility. (Susman's, for example, were apparently by email.)

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Fri Aug 14, 2015 2:53 am

Anybody know if Gibson DC callbacks are going out by phone or by e-mail?

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Fri Aug 14, 2015 3:12 am

Perhaps denial but not ruling out by fantastic troll

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Fri Aug 14, 2015 3:18 am

The nearly simultaneous PA/DC reporting and double "don't remember" and the fact that there's only one of each makes it seem possible, at least?

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Fri Aug 14, 2015 3:39 am

Gibson LA told me not to start freaking out if a callback doesn't come immediately, as they are planning to make decisions next week. Lies.

I'm filing this next to the Farella entry as Dubious

that was the most sociopathic thing a firm has done imho. "We take a long time to determine whom to give callbacks to" *hands out dinner invites on the spot to certain people*
