Any non-Quinn updates (screeners, cbs, dings, anything really)?

Are firms amenable to minority applicants from HLS that went from bottom of the class (straight Ps) to a 4.0 semester (don't know where this would put one in rank)? Just wondering whether "trading up" is worth it.

ETA: Particularly if you're looking to make the jump into the V50/DC Market? And also if classes aren't cake walks. I.e., took substantive black letter law courses.

I've got a callback with Pfizer next week.

As a recap of this thread, we've seen dings from Cravath, Davis Polk, Simpson Thacher, Paul Weiss, Cleary DC, Quinn NY, Covington, Gibson Dunn, Wilson Sosini, Dechert, Proskauer, and Knobbe Martens.

We've also seen screeners and callbacks for Cahill, Quinn, Pfizer, MoFo, Skadden NY, Loeb & Loeb, Hueston Hennigan. One Cahill offer reported here, and a post-CB ding for Quinn.

There's also been talk about public postings for Skadden NY, Kirkland NY/Boston/Chicago, MoFo NY, McGuire Woods Chicago and Jones Day Chicago.
When did you interview/hear back from Pfizer? Also can I ask your school/stats? Thanks!

Also many of the dings came from a resume drop not mass mailing.

Two questions:
1. snail mail or email ding?
2. Recruiting from the website or NALP contact?

When they contacted you for a CB, did they call from an anonymous number by any chance?

Does Quinn do same-day offers to 3Ls, like they used to for their summer classes? I haven't heard for a few days, and wondering if I'm going to be dinged.

The total silence from firms has been really disheartening. Has anyone gotten an interview off an August mass email campaign?

MoFo and Skadden NY CBs were the result of mass mailing.

Seconded. Are firms not looking at 3Ls at all? It's going to be Labor Day and not so much as a screener has been extended.

I've gotten dings and CBs from symplicity listings and resume drops, but zero attention from firms I emailed.

Anyone gotten dings (or even acknowledgement) from emails?
