Do pre OCI callbacks have different offer/ding timelines than regular callbacks? when should one start worrying.

Debevoise NY callback last Monday and radio silence since (except for responses to thank you notes which likely mean nothing). Going a bit crazy tbh! Good luck to you!

I had a callback with them too and am still waiting as well. Please let me know if you hear anything!
Also had a Monday CB. Got the impression they had just started interviewing for the summer so I am not sure what that means for them getting back to us soon. Did either of you ask about expected turn around time? I did not.
When did you both apply to Allen & Overy? If you don't mind sharing, what are your stats?
I applied through MM late June. Got the screener via phone call early July, and then CB Monday. I don't have stellar stats: UT/UCLA/VANDY, Not LR, around 15%, plus I am an int'l student. Had some related WE.
I am the above anon. I just got the offer by phone. Good luck to both of you!!
Congrats! Thank you for sharing.

Just jumping in on this as well. CB late last week (Thursday/Friday-ish). Any other movement??

UT/UCLA/Vandy, a little above 30%, secondary journal, relevant work exp

CB with PW NY (late last week). Silence so far, anyone hear back or have an idea when I might hear back?

Anonymous User · Post by **Anonymous User** » Tue Jul 31, 2018 6:51 pm

Did a pre-OCI CB and was told to keep in touch and let them know if I'm in town again during OCI so I can possibly meet with more people. Has this happened to anyone else/any idea what on earth it means?

Dinged via email by McDermott DC. Had pre-OCI interview in the office. I go to a T13 but with a low GPA.

Anyone anecdotally know what it means if the firm recruiter tells you to come to the hospitality suite during OCI so they can introduce you to more attorneys after the callback? Happened to me 3x already but haven't heard back yet from any firm (<1 week from CBs though). Is this just a standard thing to say or actually indicative of good news?

Once you’ve received an offer- will other firms you’ve had CBs with generally move any quicker? I’m talking ore-oci

Had screeners the last three business days with firms in multiple markets. Received an immediate CB from one firm. Is it ever appropriate to reach out to the firms I haven’t heard back from yet to let them know when I’ll be in town for CBs with other firms? My gut says absolutely not.

CB to offer was 3 business days (with weekend in the middle). A friend at the firm said they thought that was a fast turnaround for them, but that they usually turnaround within a week. Although I know of others who haven't heard yet.

Still have not heard. Assume they are waiting to see if they liked people from my school more than me.

Regular OCI CBs are going out at this point--at least at my school.
