Depends on a few factors. Committee meets only once a week, so it may be at least that long before you hear. Second, the committee has to keep open some room in the class for later OCIs/CBs. If you were strong enough to get serious consideration, but not quite strong enough to get a definite offer, you might be in a hold pile.

If you have to make a decision because you are coming up on a NALP deadline, email the folks in recruiting and explain that (be prepared to explain who the other offer is from and the date the offer expires). However, I would not recommend calling and pushing for an answer just because you are anxious.

Got A&P. Interviewed on a Monday, offer by phone on a Wednesday.

Think I hit it off abnormally well with them, though. I've done really well across-the-board, and I think probably 4 of my 6 or 7 best interviews throughout all of OCI + CBs were with A&P.

So I don't know if they normally move that fast, but that was my response time.

Other than the poster on page 4, have people who did a Hogan CB heard back? I'm at a week and a half and counting.

Maybe not the point of this thread, but wondering what the reputation of SullCrom is in DC. I know they're a small office, but curious if they're highly regarded. I can't find anything on them on TLS or elsewhere

I wouldn't give any DC office with 50 or fewer attorneys serious consideration; particularly with such a NY corporate focused firm.

Who else is still waiting to hear from a significant number of CBs?

I did Sheppard Mullin about 8 days ago, Venable Tysons Corner a week ago, and Ropes & Gray today. Have Jones Day on Tuesday.
